Rancho RS5000X 0-3″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1969-1972 Chevy Blazer 2WD

Part Number: RS55113

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube gas pressurized design to provide superior handling and durability for your classic 2WD Blazer. Engineered to accommodate rear lift heights from 0 to 3 inches, these shocks solve the problem of harsh ride quality on aged suspension systems by using a progressive engagement valving system. This setup ensures smooth street comfort while maintaining the ruggedness required for light off-road or utility use.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a smooth transition through the stroke to ensure consistent ride quality across varying terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: Low-pressure nitrogen charge provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure reliable damping performance during spirited driving.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: Heavy-duty piston rod construction provides increased structural integrity to ensure long-term durability against road debris.
• Protective Boot Included: High-quality polyvinyl bellows provide a physical barrier for the oil seal to ensure a leak-free lifespan.
