Rancho RS5000X 0″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1963-1972 Chevy C30 2WD
Part Number: RS55118
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossTune technology to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for your classic Chevy C30. Engineered with a unique valving system, these twin-tube gas pressurized shocks offer a versatile balance between rugged durability and smooth street comfort. Designed specifically for 2WD models with rear leaf springs at stock height, they deliver consistent performance by reducing aeration and fade during daily transit or hauling.
Features
- CrossTune Technology: A unique progressive valving system provides a custom-tuned compression and rebound profile to ensure consistent ride quality across varying terrains.
- Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in oil foaming and aeration to ensure fade-free performance during extended use.
- Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity and dent resistance to ensure the internal piston remains functional even in harsh environments.
- Protective Boot: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the shock rod to ensure the seal remains free from debris and contaminants.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my Chevy C30?
No, these shocks are configured for 0-inches of lift and are designed to replace factory-length shocks on stock height vehicles.
What is the benefit of the Twin-Tube design on this model?
The twin-tube design is ideal for classic trucks as the outer tube acts as a shield; if the outer body is dented by road debris, the inner pressure tube remains unaffected, ensuring you aren’t stranded.
Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, based on the SKU configuration, this package includes 2 rear shocks to complete the rear axle of your vehicle.
