Frequently Asked Questions
Do these shocks provide any lift to my Dodge W200?
No, these shocks are configured for 0-inch lift applications and are designed to replace factory-length shocks without changing the vehicle’s ride height.
Why is the bushing ID smaller than the mounting pin?
This is a specific design requirement for 1961-1971 Dodge fitments to ensure a tight, noise-free fit; lubrication and extra effort are required during installation as noted in the fitment guide.
What is the benefit of the RS5000X gas charging?
The gas pressurization helps prevent the mixing of air and oil (aeration), which keeps the shock performing consistently even when the road gets bumpy.
