Rancho RS5000X 0-1.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1969-1986 Nissan Pickup
Part Number: RS55605
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series provides a significant upgrade for your Nissan Pickup, utilizing a sophisticated Cross-Curve valving system to balance on-road comfort with off-road capability. Designed specifically for vehicles with 0-1.5 inches of front lift, these gas-pressurized twin-tube shocks are engineered to handle the stresses of daily driving and light trail use. The durable construction ensures consistent damping performance while mitigating the harshness often found in aging factory suspension components.
Features
- Cross-Curve Valving: A progressive engagement system provides a custom-tuned damping curve to ensure smooth transitions between varying terrain types.
- Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure consistent performance during spirited driving.
- Twin-Tube Design: A 2.25-inch outer body provides high oil capacity and physical dent resistance to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
- Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure seal longevity.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable, as any external damage or dents to the outer tube will not affect the movement of the inner piston, ensuring you don’t get stranded on the trail.
