Rancho RS5000X 3″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ

Part Number: RS55129

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for the Jeep Cherokee XJ. Utilizing a sophisticated gas-pressurized twin-tube design, these shocks are specifically configured for 3-inch rear lift heights to maintain proper suspension geometry. The RS5000X bridges the gap between rugged off-road capability and smooth street comfort, making it the ideal solution for Jeep owners looking to eliminate the harshness often associated with lifted leaf-spring suspensions.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth transition during impacts to ensure consistent control on uneven terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: The nitrogen-charged twin-tube body provides increased fluid capacity and dent resistance to ensure long-term reliability in harsh environments.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: A hardened piston rod provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure maximum seal life.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-density mounting points provide reduced deflection and improved vibration dampening to ensure a quiet, stable cabin environment.

This SKU includes 2 shocks (one pair) for the rear of your vehicle.

Are these compatible with the Full-Size Grand Wagoneer?
