Rancho RS5000X 0″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1961-1971 Dodge W200 4WD
Part Number: RS55118
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a sophisticated twin-tube gas pressure design to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for the Dodge W200 and Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. Engineered with a unique Progressive Engagement Valving system, these shocks minimize harshness during initial impacts while maintaining firm control during heavy suspension cycling. This makes them an ideal solution for drivers seeking a balance of rugged off-road durability and smooth street comfort for stock-height vintage 4WD applications.
Features
- Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides early flow of fluid during compression to ensure a smoother ride on washboard roads.
- 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
- Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: Low-pressure nitrogen gas charge reduces oil foaming and aeration to ensure consistent damping performance under load.
- Protective Boot Included: A durable polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the oil seal to ensure protection against rocks and debris.
