Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 2001-2010 Chevy Silverado 2500HD

Part Number: RS55288

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a patented progressive engagement valving system to significantly reduce harshness during initial impacts. Designed for the Chevy Silverado 2500HD and Hummer H2, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks provide a consistent, smooth street ride while maintaining rugged durability for off-road excursions. This configuration is engineered specifically for vehicles at stock height (0″ lift), ensuring an OE-style fit with upgraded performance damping.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuitry provides a gradual transition of fluid to ensure reduced body roll and improved handling.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a minimized air-to-oil mixture to ensure consistent damping performance under varied temperatures.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity and dent resistance to ensure long-term reliability in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot: A durable polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure the seal remains free from debris and rock chips.
