Rancho RS5000X 2.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ

Part Number: RS55239

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series features a cross-tuned twin-tube design specifically engineered to enhance the ride quality of your lifted Jeep Wrangler TJ. These gas-pressurized shocks utilize a progressive engagement valving system that minimizes harshness during initial impacts while maintaining firm control on the trail. Built for durability and smooth street comfort, they provide a balanced solution for daily drivers that frequently see off-road use.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a smooth transition between low and high-speed damping to ensure consistent comfort on varied terrain.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The large 2.25-inch body holds a greater oil capacity to provide cooler operation and reduced fade during extended off-road sessions.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Protective Boot: Included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical shield for the shock rod to ensure protection against rocks, mud, and debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeep Wrangler?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for a Jeep Wrangler TJ that already has a 2.5-inch lift kit installed to ensure the shock operates within its optimal travel range.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is exceptionally durable; if the outer body is dented by a rock while off-roading, the inner tube remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning perfectly.

Does this include hardware for both front sides?
Yes, this SKU (2xRS55239) includes a pair of shocks, providing complete coverage for the front axle of your vehicle.
