Product Details
Rancho RS9000XL shocks are engineered for rear suspension applications where load changes and terrain changes call for adjustable damping. This RS999333 shock is listed for 2000-2004 Nissan Frontier rear applications with Rancho Suspension System and rear raised height 2.5 in., as well as 2000-2004 Nissan Frontier rear applications without the Desert Runner Package or with the Desert Runner Package at rear raised height 0 in. It also fits 1987-1995 Nissan Pathfinder rear applications with rear raised height from 0 in. to 2.5 in. The RS9000XL product line gives you manual control over rear shock response without changing the shock assembly.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Uses
- Rear-end bounce or instability on Nissan Frontier and Nissan Pathfinder trucks and SUVs
- Harsh ride over uneven pavement or washboard roads
- Rear suspension control changes after towing or carrying cargo
- Need for adjustable damping on mixed on-road and off-road driving
- Replacement of worn rear shock absorbers with a fitment-specific unit
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify rear ride height, package configuration, and suspension system before ordering RS999333. Confirm the upper and lower loop bushing mount dimensions match the vehicle mounting points, and compare compressed and extended lengths to the existing shock to ensure proper suspension travel. For best results, install on the rear axle in matched condition side to side when replacing worn shocks.
Quality Assurance
Rancho RS9000XL shocks are part of a recognized adjustable ride-control line used for on-road and off-road suspension tuning. RS999333 is built as a rear shock absorber with application-specific dimensions and mounting details for the listed Nissan Frontier and Nissan Pathfinder fitments.
