Rancho RS5000X 0″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1967-1972 GMC C1500 2WD

Part Number: RS55113

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an advanced Cross-Tuned twin-tube design to significantly improve the ride quality of your GMC C1500. By integrating a unique progressive engagement valving system, these shocks provide a smooth, comfortable street ride while maintaining the durability required for light hauling. Engineered for vehicles at stock height, they offer a direct-fit solution to eliminate the harshness associated with aged factory dampers.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A specialized valving system provides a progressive damping curve to ensure consistent comfort across varying road surfaces.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in fluid aeration to ensure fade-free performance during extended use.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty strut rod provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term seal integrity and dent resistance.
• Protective Boot: The included polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the shock rod to ensure protection against road debris and corrosion.
