Part Number: RS55279

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your Ram 2500. Utilizing a sophisticated gas-pressurization process, these twin-tube shocks minimize aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance across various terrains. Designed specifically for stock height applications, this set delivers a smooth street ride while maintaining the ruggedness required for light off-road use and heavy-duty work cycles.

Features

• Crossed Landscape Valve System: A patented progressive engagement design provides custom-tuned damping to ensure smooth transitions between varying road conditions.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A 150-PSI nitrogen gas charge provides a consistent response to mitigate aeration and ensure fade-free performance.
• Protective Boot Included: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the shock rod to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during heavy hauling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Ram 2500?
No, these shocks are configured for vehicles at 0″ of lift (stock height) and do not provide any lift height themselves.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X over a standard shock?
The RS5000X features an enlarged 2.25-inch body and a unique valving system that handles heat and aeration much better than standard replacement shocks, ensuring a more controlled ride.

Are the boots required for installation?
While the shocks will function without them, the included boots are highly recommended to protect the piston rod from road debris and corrosion.
