Part Number: RS55120
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to deliver a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your GMC Jimmy or Jeep Wagoneer. Utilizing a sophisticated twin-tube design, these shocks provide a smooth street feel while maintaining the ruggedness required for light off-road use. By optimizing the transition between compression and rebound, the RS5000X eliminates the harshness often associated with aged factory dampers, ensuring a controlled and comfortable driving experience at stock ride height.
Features
- Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique valve system provides a progressive damping curve to ensure consistent comfort across varying road surfaces.
- Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during extended travel.
- Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures under load.
- Protective Boot: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a shield for the shock rod to ensure the seal remains free from debris and contaminants.
