Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 3500

Part Number: RS55221

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series provides a sophisticated upgrade for the 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 3500, utilizing a cross-tuned twin-tube design to enhance ride quality on and off-road. Engineered for vehicles at stock ride height, these shocks address the harshness often associated with heavy-duty solid axle trucks by optimizing oil flow and compression. The gas-pressurized construction ensures consistent damping performance, making them an ideal solution for daily driving and light-duty work applications.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique progressive engagement valving system provides reduced initial impact harshness to ensure a smoother ride during daily commutes.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in oil foaming and aeration to ensure consistent damping control under varying load conditions.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity and dent resistance to ensure long-term durability in rugged environments.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod diameter provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure a long seal life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks are configured for 0″ of lift and are designed to replace the factory-length dampers. They do not provide lift height.

Do these shocks include the red boots?
Yes, these shocks come standard with Rancho’s signature red protective boots to keep debris away from the piston rod.

How do these differ from standard twin-tube shocks?
The RS5000X features specific internal “cross-tuning” that allows for a softer ride during low-speed travel while maintaining firmness during high-speed impacts.
