Part Number: RS55299

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced Cross-Tuned technology to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for the GMC Canyon. Featuring a unique valving system and a large 2.25-inch reserve tube, these shocks are engineered to provide smooth street comfort while maintaining rugged durability for light off-road use. Designed specifically for 2WD models with front coil springs, they offer a refined ride by minimizing harsh impacts through high-velocity compression circuitry.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique progressive valving system provides improved handling and control to ensure a balanced ride across varying road surfaces.
• Large Reserve Tube: The 2.25-inch twin-tube body provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and consistent damping during extended use.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurized: 150 PSI gas charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and fade resistance.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 16mm rod provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my GMC Canyon?

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design provides a larger outer reserve tube for oil, which protects the internal pressure tube from debris and dents while offering a smoother ride for street-driven trucks.
