Part Number: RS55151
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a sophisticated twin-tube gas pressurized design to enhance the ride quality of your GMC V2500 4WD. Engineered with Rancho’s CrossTune Technology, these shocks feature a unique progressive engagement valving system that minimizes harshness during initial impacts. This configuration is specifically tuned for vehicles with 0-2 inches of lift, providing a perfect balance between rugged off-road durability and smooth street comfort.
Features
- CrossTune Technology: A progressive engagement valving system provides a custom-tuned feel to ensure optimal control during both high and low-speed suspension movements.
- Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A 150-PSI nitrogen gas charge provides a consistent damping response to ensure reduced aeration and foaming.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
- Protective Boot: An included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal protection against debris.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my GMC V2500?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured to accommodate the increased travel required for vehicles already equipped with a 0-2 inch lift kit.
What is the benefit of the Twin-Tube design on this model?
The twin-tube design offers excellent dent resistance; if the outer shell is dented by a rock, the inner cylinder remains functional, ensuring you aren’t stranded on the trail.
Does this set include all four shocks?
Yes, this specific SKU includes a full set of four shocks (front and rear) to completely refresh your vehicle’s damping system.
