Rancho RS5000X 2″ Front Lift Shocks for 2007-2013 Chevy Avalanche 1500

Part Number: RS55785

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to deliver a significant upgrade in ride quality for leveled or lifted applications. These shocks are engineered to provide exceptional durability and dent resistance, making them ideal for work-duty trucks and daily drivers that see occasional off-road use. By optimizing the internal valving, these shocks provide smooth street comfort while maintaining the control necessary for 2-inch front lift configurations.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique valve calibration system provides a progressive engagement of the valving to ensure a smooth ride over varying terrain.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The large 2.25-inch body diameter provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operation and consistent damping performance.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Protective Boot: The included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against debris to ensure the longevity of the shock rod and oil seal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to work with vehicles that have already been equipped with a 2-inch front leveling kit or lift system.

Are these compatible with Magnetic Ride Control?
No, these shocks are designed for standard suspension systems and are not compatible with Electronic Suspension (Z55) or Magnetic Ride Control (Z95) models.

What is the benefit of the Twin-Tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for daily use; the outer tube protects the inner working cylinder from dents caused by road debris, ensuring the piston can continue to move freely.
