Rancho RS5000X 0″ Lift Shocks for 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ

Part Number: RS55128

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a specialized progressive engagement valving system to enhance the ride quality of your Jeep Cherokee XJ. Designed as a high-performance twin-tube upgrade, these shocks feature a large 2.25-inch body diameter to increase fluid capacity and maintain cooler operating temperatures. This configuration is engineered specifically for stock height vehicles, providing a significant improvement in handling and stability over factory components.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure consistent comfort on varied terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: Nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• 2.25-inch Reserve Tube: Increased oil capacity provides better heat dissipation to ensure the shock maintains optimal damping force under load.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: Heavy-duty piston rod construction provides superior scuff resistance and durability to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.
