Can't there be measurements for these shocks and just buy Rancho.

If you install aftermarket you'll lose the adjustable dampening feature that the originals have.

Look at Bilstein 5100 for aftermarket. But you should know that you can get OEMs installed for much less than $800.
Parts cost is $240 (each) via mailorder, and any good 4x4 shop can install them. The only difference in installing them is plugging in the electrical connector on the top.

You can also try taking the part number and putting it into Amazon. If you have Prime -- free shipping.

Well now I'm scratching my 🤕. The rear I agree do need the computer controlled shocks but from what I see the (Front) do not have any wires at all coming from them. Am I wrong? If there is no wires then why can't I buy aftermarket Rancho brand that fit? Keep in mind I'm ONLY talking about the front shocks.

the wires are at the very top of the shock. Maybe you front shocks are not OEM?
