Part Number: RS55151

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced Cross-Tuning technology to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for your classic Chevy or GMC. Designed for vehicles with 0-2 inches of lift, these twin-tube gas pressurized shocks utilize a progressive engagement valving system to minimize harshness during initial impacts. This configuration ensures a smooth street ride while maintaining the durability required for off-road excursions and work applications.

Features

• Cross-Tuning Technology: A unique valve base system provides a custom-tuned ride to ensure consistent control across varying terrain types.
• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide smoother transitions to ensure reduced harshness during high-velocity impacts.
• Gas Pressurized Design: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and fade-free performance.
• Heavy-Duty Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during heavy-duty use.
