The lower the number the softer the setting. Ride is subjective so you'll have to play with it until you find a combo you like. Personally, I run 7 in the rear and 5 in the front on highway. Offroad I run 2 in the front and 5 or 6 in the rear depending on what I'm carrying.

I run the 9000's as well, agree with this^^^^^ really depends on how much you're carrying. I run higher in the front due to the bumper and winch .
Go thru all the adjustments and find what suits you and your Jeep. :thumb:
I’m looking for new shocks and wondering how well you like the 9000’s

I'm not who you directed your question to, but I like the 9000's
when I've got the Jeep fully loaded down I'll keep the rears set around 8 even on the trail. they'll absorb the trail without letting my stock fenders rub much - 37's , 3.5"lift stock fenders all around.
before the 9000's the rear of the Jeep would squat on the trail pretty much on every obstacle and drop off until the rear fender was just hanging by a couple of clips.
only thing I don't like is the rear adjusters are prone to breaking off, you can buy replacements but Rancho is really good about replacing them if you contact them on their website.
Lots of guys turn the shock so the adjuster is to the inside of the mount - I find it more a PIA to adjust but it is better than breaking them off.
