Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles already equipped with 0 to 1.5 inches of rear lift to ensure the piston operates within the correct travel range.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X gas pressurization?
The shocks are pressurized with nitrogen gas to minimize air-to-oil mixture (foaming), which ensures consistent damping performance and prevents fade during extended use.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this SKU (2xRS55185_n383) includes 2 shocks, providing a complete solution for the rear axle of your vehicle.
