Rancho RS5000X 0-3″ Front Lift Shocks for 1969-1972 Chevy Blazer 2WD
Part Number: RS55120
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your classic 2WD Chevy Blazer or Jeep Wagoneer. Utilizing a sophisticated twin-tube design with a large 2.25-inch body, these shocks offer increased fluid capacity to maintain cool operating temperatures during extended use. Specifically configured for 0-3 inches of front lift, they provide the necessary travel and damping control to handle both daily street driving and light off-road excursions with a focus on smooth, consistent comfort.
Features
- Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping phases to ensure improved ride comfort on varying road surfaces.
- Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube Design: The 150 PSI nitrogen gas charge minimizes aeration and foaming to ensure consistent performance and fade resistance.
- Large Shock Body: The 2.25-inch outer diameter provides increased oil capacity to ensure lower internal operating temperatures under load.
- Protective Boot: Included red polyvinyl accordion boot protects the piston rod from debris and corrosion to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct lengths to accommodate vehicles already equipped with 0-3 inches of front lift.
What is the benefit of the gas pressurization in the RS5000X?
The 150 PSI nitrogen charge reduces the mixing of oil and air (foaming), which prevents the shock from losing damping power during rapid cycling.
Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this SKU (2xRS55120_n35) includes a pair of two shocks for the front of your vehicle.
