Rancho RS5000X 1-2.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1988-2000 Chevy K2500 4WD

Part Number: RS55152

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative Cross-Tuning system to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for your Chevy or GMC truck. Designed specifically for vehicles with 1 to 2.5 inches of front lift, these gas-pressurized twin-tube shocks deliver a smooth street ride while maintaining rugged durability for off-road use. The increased fluid capacity and robust construction ensure consistent performance and dent resistance in demanding environments.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned compression disk stack provides reduced harshness during initial impacts to ensure a comfortable ride on choppy pavement.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charging provides a reduction in fluid aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance under load.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty hardened rod construction provides superior scuff resistance to ensure a long-lasting seal life.
