Part Number: RS55244 / RS55227

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your lifted Chevy or GMC SUV. Utilizing a sophisticated twin-tube gas-pressurized design, these shocks are specifically configured for vehicles equipped with a 4-inch lift. By implementing Rancho’s Progressive Engagement Valving, this set minimizes harsh impacts while maintaining firm control during off-road maneuvers or highway cruising.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides a soft ride during initial travel to ensure comfort on washboard roads and small bumps.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The 150-PSI nitrogen gas charge provides a consistent damping force to ensure reduced aeration and shock fade during spirited driving.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during heavy-duty use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: Heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically sized and valved to work with a vehicle that has already been equipped with a 4-inch suspension lift kit.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X over the original RS5000?
The RS5000X features a larger body and a unique cross-tuned valving system that provides a much smoother transition between low-speed and high-speed damping.

Are the shock boots included?
Yes, this set includes Rancho’s signature black protective boots to shield the piston rods from dirt, rocks, and debris.
