Rancho RS5000X 0-2″ Front Lift Shocks for 1969-1972 Chevy K-20 4WD

Part Number: RS55151

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube gas pressure design to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for your classic 4WD. Engineered for durability and smooth street comfort, these shocks feature a unique valving system that minimizes aeration and oil foaming. Configured for 0-2 inches of front lift, they provide the necessary travel and control for leveled or mildly lifted Chevy and GMC trucks.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide improved handling and stability to ensure a controlled ride on varied road surfaces.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure Design: A large 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Dynamic Rebound Bumper: An internal polyurethane bumper provides energy absorption during full suspension extension to ensure quiet operation and component protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct lengths to accommodate vehicles with 0 to 2 inches of front lift height.

What does “Excluding O.E. Quad Suspension” mean?
This means these shocks are designed for vehicles with a standard single-shock-per-wheel setup and will not fit models equipped with the factory dual (quad) front shock option.

Are the shock boots included?
Yes, these RS5000X shocks include Rancho’s signature red protective boots to shield the piston rod from debris.
