I would expect them to be connected. The air pressure would then control the rebound of the shock.

Get an alignment and have your castor checked. They might not have been done by the sound of it., Ben

Yep, If they havent conected the shocks, Id doubt they did the castor adjustment.
I lifted
mine 2 inches and you could hardly keep it on the road.
Take the model number off the shocks and check them on the Rancho web site for pressures.

Hows it going ,
These shocks dont use air , but have an adjustment knob to change the valving of the shock .
If its on 9 the hardest setting and still has boat handling odds on they are stuffed , These didnt last too long on my Patrol , although I did like how you could adjust them .
rs9000x info
Hope this helps you out .
Glenn.
