Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a specialized progressive engagement valving system to enhance the handling and ride quality of your Dodge W200.

Features

• 2.25-inch Shock Body: An increased fluid capacity provides better heat dissipation to ensure stable damping under heavy loads.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Dodge W200?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to work with vehicles that have already been modified with a 1.5-inch front lift kit.

Why is the bushing fitment tight on these models?
The inner diameter of the bushing is designed for a precision fit on the mounting pin; Rancho recommends using a silicone-based lubricant to assist with the installation.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55111) includes a pair of two shocks for the front of your vehicle.
