Rancho RS5000X 0-2″ Front Lift Shocks for 1972-1993 Dodge D100, D150 2WD

Part Number: RS55199

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a unique Progressive Engagement Valving system to provide a significant upgrade for your Dodge or Plymouth classic truck. Designed for 2WD models with 0-2 inches of front lift, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks are engineered to reduce body roll and improve handling consistency. The cross-tuned technology ensures a smooth street ride while providing the necessary damping force for light off-road or utility use.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide early engagement of damping forces to ensure controlled handling during cornering and braking.
• Twin-Tube Gas Design: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and consistent performance.
• Nitrogen Gas Charging: Pressurized gas charge minimizes aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and fade resistance.
• Protective Boot: Included heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot protects the piston rod from debris to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles already equipped with 0 to 2 inches of front lift height.

Is any modification required for installation?
Yes, for proper fitment on these specific Dodge and Plymouth models, slight grinding of the lower control arm is required.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design provides a larger oil reservoir for better cooling and is more resistant to external damage (dents) than monotube designs, making it ideal for daily driven trucks.
