Yeah.. the RS9000s are only one knob for adjustments..

The bouncy ride on the '77 has pretty much cinched my decision to run 
double shocks on the '72.. should keep those bounces to a minimum.. I'd 
love to run 8 RS9000s with the in-cab adjustments (ORD members have been 
doing some experiments on what air pressures are needed for what 
adjustment.. so they can "back-door" the Rancho in-cab gizmo).. but 
blowing $500 on new shocks is not high on my list of "To-Do"..
