Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your vehicle’s factory-height suspension. Utilizing a sophisticated twin-tube design with a larger 2.25-inch body, these shocks offer increased fluid capacity to maintain cooler operating temperatures during extended use. This gas-pressurized solution effectively minimizes aeration and foaming, ensuring a smooth, controlled ride for both daily commuting and light off-road applications.

• 2.25-inch Twin-Tube Body: A high-capacity fluid reservoir provides increased heat dissipation to ensure consistent damping performance under load.
