Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 1961-1971 Dodge W100 4WD

Part Number: RS55111

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a patented progressive engagement valving system to enhance the handling of your Dodge W100. Designed for stock height applications, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks provide a significant upgrade in ride quality by reducing harshness during initial impacts. The durable construction is engineered to withstand the rigors of 4WD use while maintaining smooth street comfort for daily driving.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual transition of fluid flow to ensure a smooth ride over small bumps while maintaining control during heavy compression.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure Nitrogen gas charge provides a consistent damping force to ensure reduced aeration and foaming in demanding conditions.
• Double-Welded Mounts: Reinforced loop-style end mounts provide maximum structural integrity to ensure long-term durability on 4WD terrains.
• Protective Boot: Included polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure protection against road debris and corrosion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Dodge W100?
No, these shocks are configured for a 0-inch lift and are designed to replace factory-length dampers without changing the ride height.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X gas-pressurized design?
The Nitrogen gas charge minimizes the mixing of oil and air, which prevents the shock from “fading” or losing its damping effectiveness during repetitive cycles.

Are these sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55111_n264) includes a pair of two shocks for the front of your vehicle.
