Shock problems

I replaced my OEM shocks last year with Rancho RS5000's. My front end was bottoming out when riding through the pastures. Worked great until I noticed a thumping sound coming from under my feet. It has gradually gotten worse, now the passenger side is doing it also. Looked at the shocks the other day and found that the rubber bushing on the bottom of the shocks has worn out. These are just a year old. Any solution or ideas? The shocks came with a warranty but I don't know if the bushings are covered.

Re:Shock problems

Have you looked at this? http://www.gorancho.com/warranty.stm<br><br>I would give them a call, I don't see why they wouldn't send you replacements. It looks like most of the stuff is covered for at least 2 years anyway! <br><br>Tony

Re:Shock problems

I replaced all of my 5000's three times and the last time I put the 9000's and in cab adjuster in...no problem with them but the 5's were crap. JMHO.<br><br>EH
