Rancho RS5000X 0-2″ Front Lift Shocks for 1972-1993 Dodge D300, D350 2WD

Part Number: RS55199

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a patented Progressive Engagement Valving system to significantly improve the ride quality of your classic Dodge or Plymouth truck. Designed for vehicles with 0-2 inches of front lift, these twin-tube shocks are engineered to handle the rigors of heavy-duty work while maintaining smooth street comfort. By minimizing aeration and shock fade, the RS5000X provides a reliable damping solution that bridges the gap between rugged durability and daily drivability.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual transition to firm damping to ensure controlled handling during sudden maneuvers.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A 150-PSI nitrogen gas charge provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure consistent performance under high-load conditions.
• Double-Welded Mounts: Reinforced loop-style end mounts provide maximum structural integrity to ensure long-term durability on rough terrain.
• Protective Boot: A red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against road debris and moisture to ensure the longevity of the polished piston rod.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not provide lift. They are specifically configured with the correct travel and length to accommodate vehicles already equipped with 0-2 inches of front lift.

Is any modification required for installation?
Yes, per the manufacturer, slight grinding of the lower control arm is necessary to ensure proper clearance for the shock body on these specific vehicle applications.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X over the original RS5000?
The “X” series features a larger 2.25-inch body and improved valving that engages more quickly to reduce body roll and improve stability compared to the older design.
