Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2007-2013 GMC Sierra 1500 4WD

Part Number: RS55297

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to deliver enhanced ride quality and rugged durability for lifted applications. Engineered to manage the increased unsprung weight of larger tire packages, these shocks feature a unique valving system that minimizes harshness over small bumps while maintaining control during off-road excursions. Configured for a 4-inch lift, they provide the necessary extension to maintain proper suspension travel and prevent “topping out” on GMC and Hummer platforms.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned shim stack provides a soft initial response to ensure smooth street comfort during daily driving.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides a consistent damping force to ensure reduced aeration and shock fade during spirited driving.
• Enlarged 2.25-inch Body: An increased fluid capacity provides cooler operating temperatures to ensure consistent performance under heavy loads.
• Double-Welded Mounts: Reinforced OE-style loop mounts provide maximum structural integrity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
