Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 2002-2006 Chevy Avalanche 1500

Part Number: RS55265

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced Twin-Tube gas pressure technology to provide a refined ride for your Chevy Avalanche or GMC Yukon. Engineered with a large 2.25-inch body, these shocks utilize a unique Progressive Engagement Valving system to minimize harshness during initial impacts while maintaining firm control during aggressive maneuvers. Designed for stock height applications, they offer the perfect balance of on-road comfort and off-road durability for daily drivers and weekend explorers alike.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual transition of fluid to ensure smooth ride quality over small bumps while maintaining stability during heavy compression.
• Nitrogen Gas Charge: Pressurized gas prevents oil foaming and aeration to ensure consistent damping performance under varying thermal loads.
• 2.25-inch Shock Body: An increased fluid capacity design provides better heat dissipation to ensure long-term durability during extended use.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot protects the polished piston rod from debris to ensure the integrity of the internal seals.
