Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2002-2006 Chevy Avalanche 1500 4WD
Part Number: RS55274
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to deliver enhanced ride quality for lifted applications. Engineered to handle the increased demands of a 4-inch lift, these shocks feature a unique valving system that minimizes aeration and foaming. This ensures consistent damping performance and smooth street comfort for your Chevy Avalanche or GMC Yukon during daily driving and light off-road use.
Features
- Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth transition between damping forces to ensure controlled handling over varied terrain.
- Gas Pressurization: A high-pressure nitrogen charge provides a consistent response and prevents cavitation to ensure fade-free performance.
- Enlarged Shock Body: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure lower operating temperatures during extended use.
- Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a shield for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.

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 rear lift kit to ensure the piston operates within its optimal travel range.
What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; the outer tube can take a dent from a rock or debris without affecting the inner cylinder where the piston travels, ensuring you aren’t stranded on the trail.
Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55274_n10) includes a pair of two (2) shocks for the rear of your vehicle.
