Rancho RS5000X 4″ Front Lift Shocks for 1999-2006 Chevy Silverado 1500 4WD Torsion

Part Number: RS55268

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a sophisticated twin-tube gas pressurized design to bridge the gap between rugged off-road durability and refined street comfort. Engineered specifically for vehicles with a 4-inch lift, these shocks feature a unique cross-tuned valve system that manages impact energy at various speeds. This configuration solves the common issue of harsh ride quality in lifted trucks by providing a progressive damping curve that absorbs road chatter while maintaining stability under heavy loads.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A specialized valve system provides a progressive damping curve to ensure smooth transitions between varying terrain types.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides consistent damping performance to ensure reduced aeration and shock fade during high-cycle use.
• Protective Boot: A durable polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against road debris.
• Robust Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and dent resistance in harsh environments.
