Rancho RS5000X 0-3″ Lift Shocks for 1969-1972 GMC Jimmy 2WD

Part Number: RS55120

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for your GMC Jimmy. Engineered with a unique valving system, these shocks mitigate harsh impacts and provide consistent damping across varied terrain. This complete set is specifically configured for vehicles with 0-3 inches of lift, ensuring the piston operates within its optimal range for both durability and comfort.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping stages to ensure controlled handling during off-road articulation.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in oil foaming and aeration to ensure consistent performance during extended use.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
• Self-Lubricating Seal: A specialized PTFE-coated seal provides reduced friction and heat buildup to ensure a longer service life and prevent leaks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to accommodate vehicles that already have 0-3 inches of suspension lift installed.

Is the hardware included for installation?
Yes, this kit includes the necessary bushings and mounting hardware to install the shocks onto the factory mounting points of the listed vehicles.

What is the benefit of the gas charging in these shocks?
The nitrogen gas charge keeps the internal oil under pressure, which prevents bubbles from forming (aeration). This ensures the valving remains consistent even when the shocks are working hard on rough roads.
