Rancho RS5000X 1-2.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1988-1999 Chevy K1500 4WD

Part Number: RS55152

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to deliver enhanced stability and control for your Chevy K1500 or GMC Yukon. Engineered to handle the demands of both daily commuting and light off-road use, these shocks feature a unique valving system that minimizes harshness over small bumps while maintaining firm control during heavy impacts. Configured for 1-2.5 inches of front lift, they provide the necessary travel and damping for leveled or lifted applications.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure consistent ride quality on varied terrain.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure Design: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and consistent damping performance.
• Nitrogen Gas Charging: Pressurized gas charge minimizes aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and reduced fade during spirited driving.
• Protective Boot Included: A durable red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.
