Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative Cross-Curve valving system to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for your GMC C1500.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to accommodate a vehicle that has already been equipped with a 1.5-inch lift kit.
What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; if the outer body is dented by road debris, the inner cylinder is protected, allowing the shock to continue functioning properly.
Are these shocks sold as a complete set?
Yes, based on the specific configuration of this kit, it includes 4 shocks to refresh your vehicle’s suspension system.
