Rancho RS5000X 4″ Lift Shocks for 2002-2006 Chevy Avalanche 1500 4WD

Part Number: RS55268

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossTune technology to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for lifted applications. Engineered for durability, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks utilize a progressive engagement valving system to balance on-road comfort with off-road control. This complete set is specifically configured for vehicles equipped with a 4-inch lift, ensuring the piston operates within its optimal range to prevent bottoming out or over-extension during suspension cycling.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A unique progressive valving system provides a smooth transition between damping stages to ensure consistent control across varying terrain.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A low-pressure nitrogen charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the shock rod to ensure the seal remains free from debris and stone chips.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A 16mm hardened rod construction provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these shocks compatible with a stock height vehicle?
No, these shocks are specifically configured for a 4-inch lift and may bottom out if installed on a vehicle with less than the recommended lift height.

Do I need to purchase boots separately?
No, this set includes Rancho’s signature red protective boots to protect the piston rods from dirt and debris.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design for my truck?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; even if the outer tube is dented by a rock or debris, the inner cylinder (where the piston travels) remains functional, allowing you to finish your trip.
