Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 1988-2000 Chevy K3500 4WD

Part Number: RS55150

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossTune technology to provide a significant upgrade over factory dampening for your Chevy or GMC truck. Designed as a gas-pressurized twin-tube shock, it features a unique valving system that balances on-road comfort with off-road durability. This specific configuration is engineered for vehicles at stock ride height, ensuring a smooth, controlled ride that eliminates the harshness typically associated with heavy-duty work trucks.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A progressive rebound and compression disc system provides greater control at varying speeds to ensure consistent handling across diverse terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: The nitrogen gas-charged design provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during heavy-duty cycling.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The 16mm hardened rod provides superior corrosion resistance and structural integrity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot: The included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the oil seal to ensure debris does not cause premature shock failure.
