Rancho RS5000X 3-4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1967-1968 Chevy K-30 4WD

Part Number: RS55112

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to enhance the ride quality of your Chevy K-30. Engineered for vehicles with 3-4 inches of rear lift, these shocks manage the increased unsprung weight of larger tire packages while maintaining smooth street comfort. The gas-pressurized architecture reduces fluid aeration, ensuring consistent damping performance during both daily transit and light off-road use.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique valve calibration system provides a progressive damping curve to ensure a smooth ride on pavement while maintaining control on uneven terrain.
• Gas-Pressurized Twin-Tube: The 150 PSI nitrogen gas charge minimizes foaming and aeration to provide consistent performance and fade resistance.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot protects the piston rod from debris and moisture to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Sintered Iron Piston: The 35mm sintered iron piston provides structural rigidity and durability to ensure a long service life under heavy load conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Chevy K-30?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to work with a vehicle that already has 3 to 4 inches of rear lift installed.

How does the twin-tube design benefit my truck?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; the outer tube protects the inner working tube from dents and rock chips, ensuring the shock remains functional even in harsh environments.

Are the boots required for installation?
While the shocks will function without them, the included red boots are highly recommended to protect the chrome piston rod from pitting and premature seal failure.
