Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced Cross-Tuned technology to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for your classic 2WD GMC Jimmy.

Engineered for durability and street comfort, they provide a reliable solution for drivers seeking to restore original handling characteristics without compromising on-road stability.

Features

• Gas Pressurization: Nitrogen gas charging provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance during continuous cycling.
• Twin-Tube Design: A 2.25-inch outer body provides high oil capacity and protection against stone damage to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
