Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series features a cross-tuned twin-tube design engineered to provide exceptional durability and smooth street comfort for your Nissan. Specifically configured for 2.5-inch lift heights, these shocks utilize a unique valving system that minimizes aeration and foaming.

Features

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift; they are specifically configured to accommodate the increased travel required for a vehicle already equipped with a 2.5-inch lift kit.
What is the benefit of the RS5000X gas pressurization?
The low-pressure nitrogen gas charge helps prevent the oil from foaming during rapid piston movement, which maintains damping consistency and prevents “shock fade.”
Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55188_n873) includes 2 front shocks.
