Part Number: RS55222

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series defines the standard for durable, versatile performance on both paved roads and light trails. Utilizing a sophisticated twin-tube design with Progressive Engagement Valving, these shocks are specifically engineered to handle the unique suspension geometry of your vehicle at stock height. By reducing harsh impacts and minimizing body roll, the RS5000X provides a smooth street ride without sacrificing the ruggedness required for off-road excursions.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides restricted oil flow during high-speed impacts to ensure consistent damping control.
• Gas Pressurization: Low-pressure Nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in oil foaming and aeration to ensure fade-free performance in varying temperatures.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: A heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity and scuff resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Twin-Tube Design: A secondary outer tube provides a protective barrier for the inner working cylinder to ensure functional reliability even if the outer body is dented.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks are configured for a 0-inch lift and are designed to replace factory-length shocks without changing the ride height.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?

Do these shocks come with boots?
Yes, these Rancho RS5000X shocks include the iconic red protective boots to shield the piston rod from contaminants.
