Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a patented progressive engagement valving system to enhance the ride quality of your Chevy C3500 or GMC Yukon. Designed for stock height applications, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks provide a significant upgrade over factory units by reducing body roll and harshness. The durable construction is engineered to withstand the rigors of daily work and highway driving, ensuring a smooth and controlled feel regardless of the road surface.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual transition between low and high-speed damping to ensure a smooth street ride without sacrificing control.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube Design: Nitrogen gas charge reduces aeration and foaming provides consistent performance to ensure fade-free operation during heavy use.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: Heavy-duty reinforced rod construction provides increased structural integrity to ensure long-term durability in demanding environments.
• Protective Boot Included: High-quality polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against debris to ensure the seal and piston rod remain free from damage.
