Rancho RS5000X 2.5-4″ Lift Shocks for 1969-1993 Dodge W300, W350 4WD

Part Number: RS55114 / RS55005

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your classic Dodge or Plymouth 4WD. Featuring a patented progressive rebound and compression disc system, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks are specifically configured for vehicles with a 2.5 to 4-inch lift. By managing energy transfer through a larger 2.25-inch body, they deliver a smooth street ride while maintaining the ruggedness required for off-road environments.

Features

• Crossed Landscape Valve System: A patented progressive valving design provides custom-tuned damping to ensure consistent control during both low-velocity and high-velocity impacts.
• 2.25-inch Twin-Tube Body: An increased fluid capacity provides better heat dissipation to ensure fade-free performance under heavy loads or rough terrain.
• Nitrogen Gas Charging: Pressurized gas displacement provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and stability.
• Protective Boot Included: A durable polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure the oil seal remains free from debris and contaminants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically sized and valved to function correctly on vehicles already equipped with a 2.5 to 4-inch lift kit.

Why is the bushing fitment tight on the Dodge W-series?
The inner diameter of the bushing is intentionally snug to ensure a secure, rattle-free fit on the mounting pin; lubrication is required during the installation process.

How does the RS5000X differ from a standard shock?
The RS5000X features a much larger body and a patented valving system that transitions more smoothly between compression and rebound, reducing the “jarring” effect of road imperfections.
