Part Number: RS55114

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide superior handling and comfort for your classic Dodge or Plymouth 4WD. Engineered to accommodate vehicles with 2.5 to 4 inches of lift, these shocks feature a unique valving system that minimizes aeration and shock fade. This set provides the durability needed for off-road excursions while maintaining a smooth, controlled ride for daily street driving.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide increased control during high-speed impacts to ensure a smoother ride on rough terrain.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.25-inch twin-tube reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure consistent cooling and reduced fade during heavy-duty use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides extra strength and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term structural integrity.
• Gas Pressurization: Low-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in oil foaming and cavitation to ensure rapid response times.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles already equipped with a 2.5 to 4-inch suspension lift to ensure proper travel and prevent bottoming out.

Why are the bushings tight during installation?
The inner diameter of the shock bushing is designed to be smaller than the mounting pin for a precision fit; lubrication and extra effort are required during the press-fit process.

Are boots included with these shocks?
Yes, this complete set of four shocks includes Rancho’s signature red protective boots to shield the piston rods from debris and corrosion.
