Anyone know if this kit is compatible with a 2024 XT Ranger, seeing different compatibility years listed on different retailers and the Rancho website has nothing listed for 2024 Ranger. They might get back to me on it wlfrom when I called but I'd rather not experiment even if the retailer guarantees fitment or refund. Any help would be appreciated-Thanks

I'll be installing this same kit on my 2025 Ranger Lariat FX4 in May. The American Truck sales rep said it would work with all models 2019 to 2025, except for the Raptor. I'll post an update when they are installed.

I appreciate it greatly, I did talk with AT as well and I was told they at least guarantee fitment with regard to the purchase. It's just quite a task for me to do, and I would like to have as much info as I can get. I can say the gorancho.com dealer/installer list is pretty much not maintained although I did find one place on the list that quoted me parts and labor to get it installed with alignment if I wanted to go that way.

I just had these same struts installed in my 2025 Ranger Lariat FX4. It did level the vehicle, but the ride is really bouncy. I seems like it still needs adjusted for a firmer ride. I'll be adjusting this tomorrow to try and find the sweet spot on these adjustable Rancho leveling struts.

Totally appreciate the input. Did you max out the compression knob at base to start with?

Someone said the stock setup was pretty soft so I'm not sure about any difference in preload with the stock spring on these rancho units or if that would even be a factor...

I picked up the truck at 8pm tonight. My mechanic did the adjusting, but I will try adjusting with the compression knob tomorrow. He did mention that the OEM coil may need to be replaced. More to come on this.

I would guess that clockwise and/or the higher number if shown would increase the compression with the dial but not sure, that is interesting regarding the OEM coil. Yes I will keep a look out

Just wondering if you had an update on ride quality. Thanks.

I returned the Rancho Level It RS66508R9 Suspension Leveling Kit. The adjustment knob made no difference the softness/bouncing remained the same no matter which way I adjusted the struts.
I'll wait until someone on this forum identifies a better set of struts that level and provide a good ride before I buy again.
