Rancho RS5000X 1.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1973-1990 Chevy G20

Part Number: RS55120

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a sophisticated twin-tube, gas-pressurized design to deliver a significant upgrade in ride quality for your Chevy G20. Engineered to accommodate a 1.5-inch front lift, these shocks feature Rancho’s exclusive Progressive Engagement Valving (PEV) which minimizes harshness during initial impact. This solution provides balanced damping for both highway stability and off-road durability, ensuring a smooth, controlled stance for your classic van.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal valving provides a smoother transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure maximum comfort on uneven terrain.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A nitrogen-charged 2.25-inch body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure consistent performance and reduced shock fade during extended use.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides superior scuff resistance and structural integrity to ensure long-term seal life.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-density mounting points provide enhanced durability and vibration dampening to ensure a quiet and stable cabin environment.
