Rancho RS5000X 3″ Lift Shocks for 1983-1993 Chevy S-10 4WD

Part Number: RS55118

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossTune technology to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for your lifted Chevy S-10. Engineered for durability and dent resistance, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks are specifically valved to handle the increased demands of a 3-inch lift. This setup ensures a smooth street feel while maintaining the ruggedness required for off-road excursions.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A unique progressive engagement valving system provides a custom-tuned ride to ensure consistent control across varied terrain.
• Twin-Tube Design: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during heavy use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Gas Pressurization: Low-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure immediate damping response.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Chevy S-10?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to work with a vehicle that already has a 3-inch suspension lift installed.

Is this a complete set for the whole vehicle?
Yes, this SKU includes a full set of four (4) shocks to cover both the front and rear of your 1983-1993 Chevy S-10 4WD.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-road use; if the outer tube is dented by a rock, the inner working cylinder remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.
