Rancho RS5000X 4″ Lift Shocks for 2004-2012 GMC Canyon

Part Number: RS55610

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide a significant upgrade in handling and comfort for your GMC Canyon. Engineered specifically for vehicles configured with a 4-inch lift, these shocks balance rugged off-road durability with smooth street performance. The gas-pressurized twin-tube construction ensures consistent damping while protecting the internal components from road debris and trail hazards.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual ramp-up in damping force to ensure a smooth ride over small bumps while maintaining control during large impacts.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in oil foaming and aeration to ensure consistent performance during spirited driving.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure lower operating temperatures and better heat dissipation.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: Heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my GMC Canyon?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and length-corrected for vehicles already equipped with a 4-inch suspension lift kit.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-roading; if the outer body gets dented by a rock, the inner working tube remains unaffected, ensuring you aren’t stranded on the trail.

Do these shocks include the boots?
Yes, this set includes Rancho’s signature red protective boots to shield the piston rods from dirt, mud, and debris.
