Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2001-2007 Chevy Silverado 1500HD Torsion Bar

Part Number: RS55297

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide exceptional durability and ride quality for your heavy-duty truck. Engineered to handle the increased demands of a 4-inch rear lift, these shocks utilize a unique valving system that minimizes foam and aeration. This ensures consistent damping performance and smooth street comfort whether you are commuting or navigating light trails.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure driver comfort across varied terrains.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A nitrogen-charged 2.25-inch body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure lower operating temperatures during extended use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-density mounting points provide enhanced durability and vibration isolation to ensure a quiet and controlled ride.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to function correctly on vehicles already equipped with a 4-inch rear lift kit.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; if the outer body is dented by debris, the inner working tube remains unaffected, ensuring you aren’t stranded on the trail.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55297_n52) includes a pair of two (2) shocks for the rear position.
