Rancho RS5000X 2-3″ Front Lift Shocks for 1963-1973 Jeep Wagoneer 4WD
Part Number: RS55116
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a patented progressive rebound and compression disc system to enhance the ride quality of your 4WD vehicle. Designed for the 1963-1973 Jeep Wagoneer, these gas-pressurized twin-tube shocks provide exceptional durability and dent resistance for off-road environments. By utilizing a larger 2.25-inch body, the RS5000X increases fluid capacity to maintain cooler operating temperatures and consistent damping performance during daily transit or trail use.
Features
- Progressive Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound discs provide a smooth street ride while maintaining firm control to ensure stability during off-road maneuvers.
- Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: Nitrogen gas-pressurized 2.25-inch shock bodies provide increased fluid capacity to ensure reduced fade and consistent performance under load.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: A 16mm nitro-carburized piston rod provides high-tensile strength and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
- Protective Boot: Included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against debris to ensure the longevity of the polished chrome rod and oil seals.
