Is this Rancho Shock suitable for both front &amp; rear ends?

The Rancho RS5000 series is good for both the front and rear suspension. Depending on your vehicle year/model/make also. The RS5000 series have different #'s for the front shock and rear shock. I bought these for my '97 Jeep Wrangler Sport so the RS5128 is for Front and RS5240 is for the rear.

I have experience with both systems you're asking about. Which is better depends on how you intend to ride. If you are going to go hard on some trails then a front suspension will suit you fine as you will rarely be seated. However if you plan on riding cross country, or even causally, then a dual suspension is for you as it will allow a more comfortable seated ride. BUT, as with all things in life it all comes down to personal preference. Hope this helped a little. Ride safe.

Doubt it, I beleive the 2wd suspension operates differently. Smaller springs. Google around to see though. The add a leaf is universal to most leaf spring rear ends

Yes - this is the rear shock for that application (fits left or right rear) - sold each

For the rear only if it has the twist in Pistons. If it has the press in pistons like the front then no.

There are different sets for front and rear. I believe this is the front pair. I have the r32 so the brakes are bigger than regular GTI or Golf

Yes. Both the front and rear struts can be used on either side. Since there is nothing that hooks to the strut itself (brake hose, sway bar link, etc), they can be used on either side. That's the beauty of those cars...simplicity...

These are sold separately, be sure you look up your vehicle on Rancho's website for proper shock model # for the 9000 series. There's 2 reasons for this: 1.Amazon's fitment guide is not always correct. 2.Most vehicles do not have the same shocks front and back or may have shocks and struts depending on load and handling requirements. These are awesome shocks, make sure you follow instructions and tighten bolts properly, if they're tight but not tight enough you'll get thumping noises. Good luck.

I have a 94 3500 5.9 CTD, I only changed the front, they work great. Look up the correct # from rancho. Then order. I will be installing the rear soon, and will go with Rancho 9000 series.

Not alone. This rear shock can ACCOMODATE up to 2.5 inches of lift, i.e. with a rear spacer or lift springs. The front adjustable 5100s do provide lift (4 different positions from stock to 2.5, I think), but these are not the adjustable model.

I added the Rancho shocks up front and the Fab Tech add a leaf 1.5. In the back for a 2-3 inch lift all around. We replaced the rear shocks with bilstien 4600. This is on my 2001 2WD Tacoma. After having done this, I would have put bilstien 5100 in the back. Otherwise everything works/looks nice!

I know for certain it will work on the front, either side. I have not needed to replace the rear yet so I have not checked to see if it is the same.

I'm not sure it depends on your particlular application. I go to rockauto.com to see whats out there for what I need and then shop for prices when I have the right part number. These shocks are generally for the rear. Hope this helps some.

Per Monroe's website the 71377 is a universal front shock. If I remember correctly Amazon is not selling in pairs........so you'll need to order 2.

Only for the Rear End, my friend. Front Shocks are sold separately As "Right Side Shock" & "Left Side Shock". Rear shocks can go either way, they're the same, Front ones Aren't.

It can be used either front or rear but it's all dependent on which type of mount (I.S. or Post) your bike accepts and using the proper adapter.

No. It is the front, left brake. You would also need to purchase a rear, right brake, if you want a full set of both brakes.
