Yes they are RS9000S. I got them when I first swapped the axles a few years ago. The springs were so stiff that I never noticed a difference after adjusting them. Now it's night and day when I adjust them.

I just got tired of waiting for someone else to be the test dummy. I tell ya though, had this not worked, I'd be sleeping in the kids treehouse out back. Lol. Thanks for the compliments.
