Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 1974 Jeep Wagoneer 4WD

Part Number: RS55113

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a specialized Progressive Engagement Valving system to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for your 1974 Jeep Wagoneer. Designed for stock height applications, these gas-pressurized twin-tube shocks feature a larger 2.25-inch body for increased fluid capacity and cooler operation. This configuration ensures smooth street comfort while maintaining the durability required for light off-road use and utility tasks.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure consistent driver control.
• Gas Pressurization: A nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• 2.25-inch Shock Body: An oversized outer tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure lower internal operating temperatures.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeep Wagoneer?
No, these shocks are configured for a 0-inch lift height and are designed to replace factory-length dampers; they do not provide any additional lift.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X gas charge?
The nitrogen gas charge keeps the internal hydraulic oil under pressure, which prevents bubbles from forming (aeration) and ensures the valving remains consistent under heavy use.

Does this include a pair of shocks?
Yes, based on the SKU configuration, this product includes 2 shocks for the front of your vehicle.
