Part Number: RS55115

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative CrossTune Technology valve system to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for your International Scout. Designed specifically for vehicles with 3-4 inches of rear lift, these gas-pressurized shocks feature a progressive engagement valving that maintains a smooth street ride while handling off-road impacts. The twin-tube body construction offers increased fluid capacity and rugged durability, ensuring consistent performance during heavy-duty use or trail excursions.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A unique base valve system provides a progressive engagement curve to ensure smooth comfort on paved surfaces and controlled damping on rough terrain.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The 2.25-inch diameter twin-tube body provides increased oil capacity to reduce internal temperatures and ensure fade-free performance.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 16mm nitro-carburized rod provides superior corrosion resistance and structural integrity to ensure long-term seal life.
• Protective Boot: Included red polyvinyl accordion boot protects the shock rod and oil seal from road debris and trail grit to ensure maximum service life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my International Scout?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct extended and compressed lengths to work with vehicles already equipped with a 3-4 inch rear lift kit.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-road use; if the outer tube is dented by a rock, the inner cylinder remains functional, allowing the shock to continue operating correctly.

Are these shocks sold as a pair or individually?
This specific SKU (2xRS55115) includes 2 shocks, providing a complete solution for your rear axle.
