Part Number: RS55166
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your GMC C2500. Utilizing a refined twin-tube design, these shocks focus on delivering smooth street comfort while maintaining the ruggedness required for work and light off-road use. Designed specifically for stock height applications, they solve the issue of factory suspension fade and harshness by providing consistent damping and increased oil capacity.
Features
- Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique valve system provides a progressive engagement of the valving to ensure smooth ride quality during normal driving while maintaining control during sudden maneuvers.
- Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charging provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure consistent performance even as temperatures rise.
- Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operation and protection against internal damage from trail debris.
- Protective Boot: A durable polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity and prevent pitting.
