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

Part Number: RS55244

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a unique Progressive Engagement Valving system to provide a custom-tuned ride for your lifted Chevy or GMC. Designed specifically for vehicles with a 4-inch lift, these shocks utilize a large 2.25-inch reserve tube to increase oil capacity and improve heat dissipation during rugged use. This twin-tube gas-pressurized design balances off-road durability with smooth street comfort, making it an ideal solution for daily-driven trucks and SUVs that see frequent trail time.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual transition of fluid to ensure a smooth ride over small bumps while maintaining control during heavy impacts.
• 2.25-inch Twin-Tube Body: A larger fluid capacity housing provides increased heat dissipation to ensure consistent damping performance under high-load conditions.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and fade-free performance.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A 16mm heavy-duty rod construction provides superior scuff resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity in harsh environments.
