Rancho RS5000X 2.5-4″ Lift Shocks for 1969-1991 Chevy Suburban 4WD

Part Number: RS55001 / RS55112

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your lifted Chevy Suburban. Utilizing a sophisticated twin-tube design with a larger 2.25-inch body, these shocks offer increased fluid capacity to maintain cool operating temperatures during demanding use. This complete set of four shocks is specifically valved to handle the weight and geometry of a 2.5 to 4-inch lift, ensuring a smooth street ride without sacrificing off-road control.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique progressive rebound and compression disc system provides custom valving to ensure a balanced ride across varying terrain.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charging provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance under heavy cycling.
• Double-Welded Mounts: Reinforced loop-style end mounts provide maximum structural integrity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot: Included poly-vinyl shock boots provide a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure seal longevity against debris and moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks provide my vehicle with a 4-inch lift?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct extended and collapsed lengths to function safely on vehicles already equipped with a 2.5 to 4-inch suspension lift.

Does this kit include all four shocks for my vehicle?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55001_2xRS55112) includes a full set of four shocks, covering both the front and rear positions of your 4WD Suburban or Yukon.

What is the benefit of the gas pressurization in the RS5000X?
The nitrogen gas charge keeps the internal hydraulic oil under pressure, which prevents air bubbles from forming (foaming) during rapid movement, ensuring your suspension doesn’t get “mushy” during rough driving.
