Rancho RS5000X 4″ Front Lift Shocks for 2002-2006 Chevy Avalanche 2500

Part Number: RS55296

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative CrossTune Technology to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for your lifted heavy-duty SUV. Engineered specifically for vehicles with a 4-inch front lift, these twin-tube shocks feature a unique valving system that balances on-road comfort with off-road durability. By utilizing a larger 2.25-inch reserve tube, the RS5000X maintains cooler operating temperatures during demanding use, ensuring consistent performance whether you are commuting or hitting the trails.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A proprietary progressive valving system provides a custom-tuned damping curve to ensure smooth highway tracking and aggressive off-road control.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A high-capacity 2.25-inch body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure fade-free performance under heavy loads.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior corrosion resistance and structural integrity to ensure long-term reliability in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot: The included polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the oil seal to ensure protection against road debris and contaminants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles already equipped with a 4-inch front lift kit to ensure the piston operates within the correct travel range.

What is the benefit of the larger 2.25-inch shock body?
The larger body allows for a greater volume of hydraulic fluid, which helps dissipate heat more effectively than standard 2-inch shocks, preventing “shock fade” during heavy use.

Do these shocks come with the boots?
Yes, these RS5000X shocks include red polyvinyl boots to protect the piston rod and oil seals from dirt and rocks.
