Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1967-1968 Chevy Suburban 4WD

Part Number: RS55112

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a patented progressive engagement valving system to enhance the handling and ride quality of your lifted classic Chevy Suburban. Designed specifically for vehicles with a 4-inch rear lift, these gas-pressurized twin-tube shocks provide a significant upgrade over standard dampers by reducing body roll and harshness. The cross-tuned technology ensures a smooth street ride while maintaining the rugged durability required for off-road excursions.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide early flow at low speeds to ensure smooth ride comfort and immediate response.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A 150-PSI nitrogen gas charge provides a consistent damping force to ensure reduced aeration and foaming.
• Heavy-Duty Body: A 2.25-inch diameter shock body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during heavy use.
• Protective Boot: Included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Chevy Suburban?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to accommodate a Suburban already equipped with a 4-inch rear lift kit.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X gas charge?
The 150-PSI nitrogen gas charge minimizes the mixing of oil and air (foaming), which prevents shock fade during spirited driving or rough terrain.

Are the boots included with the shocks?
Yes, this pair of shocks comes standard with Rancho’s signature red protective boots to shield the piston rods from road grime and rocks.
