Rancho RS5000X 0-2″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1969-1972 Chevy K10 4WD

Part Number: RS55118

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to significantly improve the ride quality of your Chevy K10 or Toyota Land Cruiser. Engineered with a unique progressive engagement valving system, these shocks provide a smooth, comfortable street ride while maintaining the durability required for off-road excursions. Configured for 0-2 inches of rear lift, they serve as a high-performance upgrade for classic 4WD applications seeking better control and dent resistance.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides early flow of fluid at low velocities to ensure a smooth ride over small road imperfections.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The large 2.25-inch body holds a greater fluid capacity to provide cooler operation and consistent damping performance during repetitive cycling.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A 16mm heavy-duty rod construction provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot Included: The included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the oil seal to ensure protection against rocks, mud, and debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to accommodate vehicles that already have 0-2 inches of rear lift height.

What is the benefit of a twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-roading; if the outer body is dented by a rock, the inner tube remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.

Are the bushings included with the shocks?
Yes, these shocks include high-quality polyurethane bushings and the necessary sleeves for a standard installation.
