Rancho RS5000X 0-2″ Lift Shocks for 1976-1993 Dodge W300, W350 4WD

Part Number: RS55111

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series provides a significant upgrade for the 1976-1993 Dodge W-Series trucks, utilizing advanced gas-pressurized twin-tube technology. These shocks are engineered to handle the demands of 4WD applications, offering a refined valving system that minimizes harshness on the street while maintaining control off-road. Configured for 0-2 inches of lift, they provide the necessary travel and damping for leveled or mildly lifted Dodge pickups.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping forces to ensure consistent ride quality across varying terrains.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during sustained cycles.
• Twin-Tube Design: A 2.25-inch diameter outer body provides increased oil capacity and dent resistance to ensure internal piston movement is protected from trail debris.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty hardened rod construction provides superior corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Dodge truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct extended and collapsed lengths to accommodate vehicles with 0-2 inches of lift height.

Do I need special tools for the bushing installation?
As noted in the fitment guide, the bushing I.D. is intentionally tight. We recommend using a silicone-based lubricant and a press or vice to assist with seating the bushings onto the mounting pins.

Are boots included with this shock kit?
Yes, this set includes Rancho’s signature red protective boots to shield the piston rods from dirt, mud, and debris.
