Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2000-2006 GMC Yukon XL 1500

Part Number: RS55274

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to enhance the ride quality and durability of your lifted 2000-2006 GMC Yukon XL 1500. Specifically configured for vehicles with a 4-inch rear lift, these shocks employ a unique valving system that minimizes aeration and cavitation. This setup provides a smooth, controlled street ride while maintaining the ruggedness needed for light off-road use and towing applications.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned compression and rebound circuit provides a smooth transition between damping forces to ensure consistent comfort on varied road surfaces.
• Gas Pressurization: The twin-tube nitrogen gas-charged design provides reduced fluid foaming and aeration to ensure reliable performance under high-load conditions.
• 10.25-Inch Travel: The extended 26.44-inch length provides ample articulation for lifted geometries to ensure the tires maintain contact with the ground during suspension cycling.
• Protective Boot: A durable red polyvinyl boot provides a shield for the shock rod and oil seal to ensure a long service life against road debris and moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design on this model?
The twin-tube design provides a larger oil capacity and an outer shell that protects the internal piston chamber from dents, ensuring the shock remains functional even in harsh environments.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, based on the SKU (2xRS55274), this product includes two rear shocks to complete the rear axle of your vehicle.
