Rancho RS5000X 0″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1996-1997 Lexus LX450

Part Number: RS55208

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossFlow technology to provide a significant upgrade for your Lexus LX450 or Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Series. Designed for vehicles at factory ride height, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks utilize a unique progressive engagement valving system to minimize harshness during initial impacts. This creates a smooth, durable ride that excels in both daily commuting and rugged off-road environments.

Features

• CrossFlow Technology: A specialized valve design provides a larger area for fluid flow to ensure consistent damping and reduced internal heat build-up.
• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a soft ride during low-speed travel to ensure maximum comfort on paved surfaces.
• Nitrogen Gas Charging: Pressurized gas displacement provides immediate response to road irregularities to ensure reduced aeration and foaming.
• Heavy-Duty Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cool operation under heavy loads.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Lexus LX450?
No, these shocks are configured for a 0-inch lift and are designed to replace factory-length dampers without changing the vehicle’s ride height.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design on this model?
The twin-tube design offers excellent durability; if the outer body is dented by a rock or debris, the inner cylinder remains unaffected, ensuring the shock continues to function properly.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, based on the SKU configuration, this package includes 2 rear shocks to complete the rear axle installation.
