Rancho RS5000X 2.5-4″ Front Lift Shocks for 1974-1975 Plymouth Trailduster 4WD

Part Number: RS55114

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a high-pressure gas-charged twin-tube design to provide exceptional durability and ride comfort for your Plymouth Trailduster. Engineered to handle the increased demands of a 2.5 to 4-inch lift, these shocks feature a massive 2.25-inch body for increased fluid capacity and cooler operation. Whether navigating rough terrain or daily driving, the RS5000X delivers a smooth, controlled ride by reducing aeration and shock fade.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother ride to ensure comfort during low-speed crawling and high-speed highway travel.
• 2.25-inch Shock Body: An oversized twin-tube outer housing provides increased oil capacity to ensure consistent damping performance by dissipating heat more efficiently.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurization: High-pressure gas charging provides a barrier between the oil and gas to ensure zero aeration and immediate response to road inputs.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A 16mm heavy-duty rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Plymouth Trailduster?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to accommodate vehicles already equipped with a 2.5 to 4-inch suspension lift.

Why is the bushing ID smaller than the mounting pin?
This is an intentional design for a secure, rattle-free fit. Lubrication and extra effort are required during installation to press the bushing onto the pin.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, based on the SKU configuration, this package includes 2 front shocks for a complete front-axle upgrade.
