Rancho RS5000X 1.5″ Lift Shocks for 1963-1972 GMC C2500 2WD Rear Leaf Spring

Part Number: RS55120

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a patented progressive rebound and compression disc system to enhance the ride quality of your GMC C2500. Engineered for durability and street comfort, these twin-tube shocks are configured for a 1.5-inch lift, providing a significant upgrade over factory dampening. The gas-pressurized design minimizes aeration and foaming, ensuring consistent performance whether you are commuting or hauling light loads.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound discs provide smoother transition between movements to ensure a controlled ride over varying road surfaces.
• Twin-Tube Design: A 2.25-inch reserve tube body provides extra fluid capacity and dent resistance to ensure long-term reliability in harsh environments.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurization: 150 PSI gas charge provides immediate response and prevents oil foaming to ensure consistent dampening performance.
• Protective Boot: High-quality red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure the oil seal remains free of debris.
