Rancho RS5000X 4″ Lift Shocks for 2003-2009 Hummer H2

Part Number: RS55289 / RS55297

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube gas pressurized design to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for your Hummer H2. Engineered specifically for vehicles equipped with a 4-inch lift, these shocks feature a unique progressive engagement valving system that minimizes harshness during initial impacts. This setup provides the durability and dent resistance required for off-road environments while maintaining a smooth, controlled street ride for daily driving.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping cycles to ensure maximum comfort on uneven terrain.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The nitrogen-charged 2.25-inch body provides consistent damping performance and increased fluid capacity to ensure reduced shock fade during extended use.
• Double-Welded Mounts: Reinforced loop-to-loop ends provide superior structural integrity to ensure long-term reliability under heavy payload or off-road stress.
• Protective Boot: Included polyvinyl accordion bellows provide a physical barrier against debris and mud to ensure the longevity of the polished chrome piston rod.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Hummer H2?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for a Hummer H2 that already has a 4-inch suspension lift installed.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design over a monotube?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-roading; if the outer tube is dented by a rock, the inner working tube remains functional, ensuring you aren’t stranded on the trail.

Are these shocks compatible with air suspension?
These shocks are designed for H2 models equipped with the Rancho 4-inch suspension system. Please verify your current lift kit components before installation.
