Rancho RS5000X 0-2″ Lift Shocks for 1976-1993 Dodge W100, W150 4WD

Part Number: RS55111

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series provides a significant upgrade for your Dodge 4WD, utilizing a cross-tuned twin-tube design to enhance both on-road comfort and off-road durability. Engineered to handle the unique demands of leaf-sprung Dodge trucks, these shocks feature a progressive engagement valving system that minimizes harshness during initial impacts. This complete set is configured for vehicles with 0-2 inches of lift, ensuring the piston remains in the optimal stroke zone for maximum control.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned shim stack provides a soft ride during initial travel and increased control during high-velocity movements to ensure smooth street comfort and off-road stability.
• Enlarged 2.25-inch Shock Body: The increased fluid capacity provides better heat dissipation to ensure consistent damping performance under heavy loads.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 16mm diameter rod provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity in harsh environments.
• Gas Pressurized Design: Low-pressure nitrogen charging reduces oil aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and fade-free performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not provide lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles already equipped with 0-2 inches of lift to ensure the shock operates within its intended travel range.

Why is the bushing fitment tight on my Dodge?
The inner diameter of the shock bushing is intentionally designed for a snug fit on the mounting pin to prevent rattling. Use a silicone-based lubricant and a press or vice for easier installation.

Are these shocks sold as a full set?
Yes, this specific SKU includes a complete set of 4 shocks (front and rear) to fully refresh your vehicle’s suspension system.
