Rancho RS5000X 0-2.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1987-1995 Nissan Pathfinder

Part Number: RS55214

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages a patented progressive engagement valving system to deliver a refined ride for your Nissan Pathfinder. Designed for vehicles with 0-2.5 inches of front lift, these twin-tube shocks provide exceptional durability and dent resistance during off-road use. By minimizing aeration and shock fade through a high-pressure gas charge, they ensure a smooth, controlled transition between street cruising and rugged trail conditions.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual transition to firm damping to ensure consistent control during spirited driving.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A nitrogen-gas charged 2.25-inch body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and reduced fade.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Protective Boot: The included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against debris to ensure the longevity of the polished rod and oil seal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Nissan Pathfinder?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to accommodate a Pathfinder that has already been lifted between 0 and 2.5 inches.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-roading; if the outer tube is dented, the inner working cylinder remains functional, ensuring you aren’t stranded on the trail.

Do these shocks come with the mounting hardware?
Yes, these shocks include the necessary S4 stem-style upper hardware and OE-style lower mounts for a direct-fit installation on the 1987-1995 Pathfinder.
