Part Number: RS55269

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to deliver a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your heavy-duty truck. Utilizing an advanced gas-pressurized twin-tube design, these shocks are specifically configured for vehicles with a 2.5-inch rear lift. The RS5000X features a unique cross-tuned valve system that provides a smooth, comfortable street ride while maintaining the rugged dent resistance required for demanding work sites and off-road environments.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A progressive engagement valving system provides custom-tuned damping to ensure improved stability and control during both on-road and off-road maneuvers.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and consistent performance under heavy loads.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior corrosion resistance and structural integrity to ensure long-term reliability in harsh climates.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-density mounting material provides enhanced durability and vibration isolation to ensure a quiet and controlled cabin environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to accommodate a vehicle already equipped with a 2.5-inch rear lift kit.

Are these sold as a pair or individually?
This specific SKU (2xRS55269_n307) includes two shocks, providing a complete solution for your rear axle.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X gas pressurization?
The low-pressure nitrogen gas charge minimizes air-to-oil mixture (foaming), which prevents performance fade during rapid suspension cycling.
