Rancho RS5000X 1-2.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 2001-2010 Chevy Silverado 2500HD 4WD

Part Number: RS55370

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series defines durability and ride quality for leveled or lifted heavy-duty trucks. Engineered with a large 2.25-inch reserve tube, these twin-tube gas pressurized shocks provide increased oil capacity to maintain cooler operating temperatures during demanding use. This configuration is specifically valved to handle the increased unsprung weight of larger tire packages, ensuring a smooth street feel without sacrificing off-road control.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuitry provides a smooth initial response to reduce harshness to ensure consistent comfort on highway surfaces.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• Twin-Tube Design: A 2.25-inch outer reserve tube provides robust protection against rock strikes and debris to ensure the internal piston remains functional in harsh environments.
• OE-Style Mounts: Durable polyurethane bushings provide a secure connection to the chassis to ensure reduced vibration transfer and long-term reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct travel lengths for vehicles already equipped with a 1 to 2.5-inch front lift or leveling kit.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this SKU includes a pair (2) of front shocks to complete the front axle of your vehicle.

Can I use these with stock height suspension?
These are optimized for 1-2.5 inches of lift; using them at stock height may result in the shock bottoming out prematurely, which can damage the internal valving.
