Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 1983-2005 Chevy Blazer 4WD

Part Number: RS55123

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a unique Progressive Engagement Valving system to provide a smooth, controlled ride for your 4WD Chevy Blazer or Oldsmobile Bravada. Designed for vehicles at factory ride height, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks are engineered to handle both daily commuting and light trail duty with equal composure. By utilizing a larger 2-inch reserve tube, these shocks offer increased oil capacity to maintain consistent damping performance and durability under various road conditions.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal shim stacks provide a soft initial response that firms up under high-impact loads to ensure maximum control during cornering or off-road excursions.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charging provides a consistent damping force to ensure reduced aeration and shock fade during spirited driving.
• Twin-Tube Design: A 2-inch diameter reserve tube provides rugged dent resistance and increased fluid capacity to ensure the inner pressure tube remains protected from trail debris.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: Heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.
