Rancho RS5000X 2″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2007-2013 GMC Sierra 1500

Part Number: RS55198

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a cross-tuned twin-tube design to significantly improve the ride quality of your GMC Sierra 1500. Specifically configured for vehicles with a 2-inch rear lift, these shocks utilize a unique valving system that minimizes harshness over road imperfections. The robust twin-tube construction provides excellent dent resistance and durability, making it the ideal solution for daily driving and light-duty off-road use.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides increased control during high-velocity impacts to ensure a smooth, stable ride on uneven terrain.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in oil foaming and aeration to ensure consistent damping performance under load.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty piston rod provides increased structural rigidity and corrosion resistance to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.
• Self-Lubricating Seal: A specialized PTFE-coated seal provides reduced friction and heat buildup to ensure smooth piston travel and prevent leaks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to accommodate a GMC Sierra 1500 that already has a 2-inch rear lift kit installed.

Can I install these if I have the ZX3 Electronic suspension?
No, these shocks are not compatible with GMC models equipped with the ZX3 Electronic Ride Control system.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for street use; the outer tube acts as a shield, allowing the shock to continue functioning even if the outer body is dented by road debris.
