Part Number: RS55166

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossTune technology to provide a significant upgrade over factory dampening for your GMC C2500. This twin-tube gas pressurized design features a progressive engagement valving system that minimizes harshness during initial impacts while maintaining firm control during heavy cycling. Engineered for durability and street comfort, these shocks are the ideal solution for drivers seeking a reliable, dent-resistant damper for daily use and light-duty hauling at stock ride height.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A unique progressive valving system provides a custom-tuned compression and rebound profile to ensure consistent ride quality across varying road surfaces.
• Nitrogen Gas Charging: High-pressure gas displacement provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• Twin-Tube Body: A heavy-duty 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity and physical protection to ensure the internal piston remains functional even if the outer shell is dented.
• Protective Boot: A high-quality polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure seal longevity against road debris and salt.
