Rancho RS5000X 2-3″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1994-2001 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD

Part Number: RS55198

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube gas pressurized design to enhance the ride quality of your lifted Dodge Ram. Specifically engineered for vehicles with 2-3 inches of rear lift, these shocks address the common issue of harsh rebound and body roll found in factory dampers. The progressive engagement valving provides a smooth street ride while maintaining the durability required for light off-road use and towing.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a smooth transition between damping circuits to ensure consistent comfort across varying terrain.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during extended cycling.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity and dent resistance to ensure the internal piston remains functional even in harsh environments.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty hardened rod construction provides superior corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are configured for vehicles that already have 2-3 inches of rear lift installed to ensure the piston operates within the correct travel range.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for daily driving; if the outer shell is dented by a rock or debris, the inner working tube remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.

Are dust boots included with these shocks?
Yes, these Rancho RS5000X shocks include protective black boots to shield the piston rod from contaminants.
