Rancho RS5000X 0″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2000-2013 GMC Yukon XL 2500

Part Number: RS55262

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your GMC Yukon XL 2500. Utilizing a sophisticated twin-tube gas pressurized design, these shocks utilize Crossed Process Valving to mitigate the harshness typically found in heavy-duty SUVs. This specific pair is configured for stock height (0″ lift) applications, offering a smooth street feel while maintaining the ruggedness required for off-road excursions or towing.

Features

• Crossed Process Valving: A progressive engagement system provides a smoother transition between compression and rebound to ensure controlled handling on unpredictable terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: The nitrogen-charged 2.25-inch body provides consistent damping force and minimizes aeration to ensure fade-free performance during extended use.
• Protective Boot: A high-quality polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against road debris.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides increased structural rigidity to ensure durability under high-load cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my GMC Yukon XL 2500?
No, these shocks are designed for vehicles at factory ride height (0″ lift) and do not provide any lift height on their own.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design on this vehicle?
The twin-tube design provides an outer reserve tube that protects the inner working cylinder from dents, ensuring the shock continues to function even if the outer body is damaged during off-road use.

Do these work with the Z55 Electronic Suspension?
No, these shocks are specifically designed for models without the Z55 Electronic or ZW7 Nivomat self-leveling suspension systems.
