Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2000-2013 GMC Yukon XL 2500

Part Number: RS55274

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossTune technology to provide a significant upgrade for your GMC Yukon XL 2500’s rear suspension. Engineered specifically for vehicles configured with a 4-inch lift, these shocks utilize a progressive engagement valving system to balance on-road comfort with off-road durability. The twin-tube gas-pressurized design ensures a smooth ride by minimizing aeration and maintaining consistent damping force during heavy-duty use or towing.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A unique progressive valving system provides a custom-tuned damping curve to ensure superior control during both high-velocity impacts and low-speed maneuvers.
• Nitrogen Gas Charging: Pressurized gas displacement provides a consistent response and prevents oil foaming to ensure fade-free performance under load.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: A heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity and resists scuffing to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-density pivot points provide enhanced durability and vibration isolation to ensure a quiet and stable cabin environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my GMC Yukon XL 2500?
No, these shocks do not provide lift. They are specifically valved and sized to fit vehicles already equipped with a 4-inch rear suspension lift.

What is the benefit of the included shock boots?
The protective boots shield the nitro-carburized piston rod from road debris, salt, and mud, which extends the life of the internal seals.

Do I need special tools for installation?
These shocks utilize OE-style mounting points (LS47 upper and standard lower), allowing for a direct-bolt-on installation with basic hand tools.
