Rancho RS5000X 0″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2002-2006 Chevy Avalanche 2500

Part Number: RS55262

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide a significant upgrade over factory ride quality for your heavy-duty SUV. Engineered with a unique progressive engagement valving system, these shocks provide smooth street comfort during normal driving while instantly firming up during off-road impacts or towing. This specific configuration is designed for stock height vehicles, ensuring a perfect fit without the need for suspension modifications.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides increased control during high-velocity movements to ensure better handling on rough terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: Nitrogen gas charging reduces aeration and foaming provides consistent damping performance to ensure fade-free operation.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty piston rod construction provides superior scuff resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity and durability.
• Protective Boot Included: A high-quality red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against debris to ensure the shock rod remains free of pits and contaminants.
