Rancho RS5000X 2.5″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2009-2010 Dodge Ram 2500 4WD

Part Number: RS55269

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to significantly improve off-road handling and on-road comfort. Engineered specifically for the Dodge Ram 2500 4WD, these shocks are configured for vehicles with a 2.5-inch rear lift. By prioritizing durability and dent resistance, the RS5000X provides a smooth, controlled ride that absorbs harsh impacts without compromising daily drivability.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping cycles to ensure consistent ride quality over varying terrain.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity and outer shell protection to ensure internal components remain functional even if the outer body is dented.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: Heavy-duty construction provides superior corrosion resistance and seal lubrication to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened to accommodate a Dodge Ram 2500 4WD that has already been equipped with a 2.5-inch rear lift kit.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is ideal for trucks that see off-road use, as the outer tube acts as a shield for the inner working cylinder, ensuring the shock continues to function even if the exterior is struck by debris.

Are boots included with these shocks?
Yes, Rancho RS5000X shocks include protective boots to keep the piston rod and oil seal free from dirt, mud, and road grime.
