Rancho RS5000X 2.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1982-1985 Jeep Scrambler 4WD

Part Number: RS55113

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to deliver enhanced ride quality and durability for your 1982-1985 Jeep Scrambler. Engineered with a unique progressive engagement valving system, these shocks provide smooth street comfort while maintaining the necessary damping force for off-road excursions. Configured for a 2.5-inch lift, they ensure your classic Jeep maintains proper suspension travel and handling characteristics after height modifications.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping forces to ensure consistent ride quality on varied terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: A 150 PSI nitrogen gas charge reduces aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during sustained cycling.
• Heavy-Duty Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures under load.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The 16mm hardened rod construction provides superior corrosion resistance and seal longevity to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.
