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

Part Number: RS55111

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series provides a sophisticated upgrade for the 1961-1971 Dodge W100 4WD, utilizing a cross-tuned twin-tube design to enhance both highway comfort and off-road durability. Engineered to replace aged factory dampers, these shocks feature a unique valving system that minimizes harshness while maintaining control over uneven terrain. This complete set is specifically configured for vehicles at factory ride height (0″ lift), ensuring a direct fit and reliable performance for classic Dodge trucks.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides increased control during high-velocity impacts to ensure a smoother ride on rough surfaces.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: The 150 PSI nitrogen gas charge reduces aeration and foaming to provide consistent damping performance under demanding conditions.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
• Glass-Filled Fluoro-Ethylene Seal: High-performance sealing material provides a low-friction interface to ensure a long service life and resistance to extreme elements.
