Rancho RS5000X 4″ Front Lift Shocks for 1999-2004 GMC Sierra 2500 4WD
Part Number: RS55296
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced Cross-Tuned technology to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for leveled or lifted trucks. Designed specifically for vehicles with a 4-inch front lift, these twin-tube gas pressurized shocks utilize a unique valving system that minimizes foaming and aeration. This ensures consistent damping performance and smooth street comfort while maintaining the durability required for off-road environments.
Features
- Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure controlled handling on varied terrain.
- Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides a reduction in oil foaming and cavitation to ensure consistent performance during rapid cycling.
- 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: A heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
- Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch outer reserve tube provides increased oil capacity and dent resistance to ensure the internal piston remains functional even if the outer shell is damaged.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these shocks sold in pairs?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55296_n612) includes a pair of two (2) shocks for the front of your vehicle.
Will these shocks lift my truck 4 inches?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to be used on vehicles that already have a 4-inch front lift kit installed.
What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is ideal for off-road use because the outer tube acts as a shield; if a rock dents the outer body, the inner pressure tube remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.
