RANCHO® QUICKLIFT™ TECHNOLOGY NOW AVAILABLE

FOR POPULAR 2009 TRUCK, SUV MODELS

Coverage Expansion Includes Several Popular Tow Vehicles

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 13, 2009 – Rancho has extended the coverage of the Rancho QuickLIFT™ technology to include key Ford and Dodge applications – often popular tow vehicles among UTV enthusiasts – this spring.

The new Rancho QuickLIFT applications include 2009 Ford F-150, 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 2WD/4WD and 2007-09 Ford Explorer. The current QuickLIFT line includes more than 35 applications.

Rancho QuickLIFT was a 2006 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) award winning technology. Rancho suspensions and shock absorbers are manufactured and marketed by Tenneco Inc. (NYSE: TEN). Rancho products are on display this weekend at the DealerExpo Show, Indianapolis (booth no. 2827).

Rancho QuickLIFT fixed-seat coil-overs replace OE spring-seat shock absorbers, installing in under two hours without cutting, welding or drilling. Finished in Rancho’s Liquid Metallic Silver, QuickLIFT provides 1- to 2.5-in. of additional lift, allowing for the use of larger wheel and tire packages and increased suspension capability.

Rancho QuickLIFT is fully compatible with another SEMA-award winning product: the Rancho MyRIDE™ Wireless Controller. The MyRIDE Wireless Controller provides one-touch wireless damping control of QuickLIFT units. The Wireless Controller includes a variety of one-touch presets, including Highway, Sport, Tow/Haul, Off-Road, and a driver-determined MyRide, which allows the owner to set his own preferred ride setting and save it for future use.
