Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Chevy G20?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured to accommodate a vehicle that has already been equipped with 1.5 inches of rear lift components.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; if the outer body is dented by road debris, the inner working tube remains unaffected, ensuring you aren’t left stranded.

Are the dust boots included?
Yes, these shocks include Rancho’s signature red protective boots to keep the piston rod clean and protect the oil seal from contaminants.
