If by quite different you mean painted white with stickers on them then you are correct. They base line Ranchos. Put on for name only. They are not an expensive shock. They are generics that are sold under many names. Edelbrock, Skyjacker and many more. They are one of the reasons I didn't bite for the "Off Road" package. When I did the math it was essentially skid plates, overrated shocks, a electric locking rear diff, different tires and wheels and the low ratio rear gears. The only significant change from a Titan with Big tow was the e locker which was no big loss as it only came into play if using 4wd low.
