Rancho RS5000X 0″ Lift Shocks for 1996-1999 Acura SLX

Part Number: 2xRS55214_2xRS55215_n1

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series provides a sophisticated upgrade for the 1996-1999 Acura SLX, utilizing a unique cross-tuned twin-tube design to enhance both on-road comfort and off-road durability. By integrating a patented progressive engagement valving system, these shocks effectively manage initial impacts and body roll without sacrificing a smooth street ride. This complete set is specifically configured for stock height (0″ lift) applications, offering a direct-fit solution that replaces aging factory dampers with heavy-duty performance components.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides increased damping control as piston speed increases to ensure stable handling during aggressive maneuvers.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube Design: The 150-PSI nitrogen gas charge minimizes aeration and foaming to ensure consistent hydraulic performance in varying temperature ranges.
• Large 2.25-inch Reserve Tube: An increased fluid capacity allows for greater heat dissipation to ensure fade-free performance during extended use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
