After riding on some crappy RC shocks for the last 4 yrs. I pulled the trigger and ordered some Rancho 5000X. Choose the 2-3" lift version 239/241. My front springs are 14" rear are 10". After further reading looks as tho the 0-2" would of been a better choice. Shocks have yet to be installed and still in the boxes. Would I be better of returning this and getting the 0/2" lift set?

What lift height are you running?
I'm about to order 5000x shocks for a 3" lift and like to get the correct length

I would return them and get the 128/240. Rancho will return them for free under their 90 day no questions asked return policy.
 
That's what I've been coming up with but wanted to make sure before throwing down the credit card
 
Have you added any bump stop extensions? Do you have a track bar relocation bracket installed on the rear?
