Part Number: RS55227
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series redefines entry-level performance by utilizing a sophisticated Cross-Tuned twin-tube design to enhance your vehicle’s handling. Engineered specifically for the Chevy Suburban 2500 and GMC Yukon, these shocks provide a smooth, consistent street ride while maintaining the rugged durability required for off-road excursions. By minimizing fluid aeration and cavitation, the RS5000X ensures your heavy-duty SUV remains composed over washboard terrain and highway expansions alike.
Features
- Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique valve calibration system provides a progressive engagement of the valving to ensure a balance between comfort and control.
- Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charging provides a reduction in fluid foaming to ensure consistent damping performance during spirited driving.
- 12.24-Inch Travel: An extended stroke design provides maximum articulation to ensure the tires maintain contact with the ground in off-road environments.
- Protective Boot: A durable polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55227_n194) includes a pair of two (2) rear shocks.
Will these shocks create a 4-inch lift for my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles that already have a 2.5 to 4-inch rear lift kit installed.
What is the benefit of the gas pressurization in the RS5000X?
The nitrogen gas charge puts pressure on the internal hydraulic fluid, which prevents the fluid from foaming or boiling, ensuring your shocks don’t lose their damping power under heavy use.
