Part Number: RS55044
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for leveled Ram trucks. Engineered to handle the increased demands of a 2.5-inch lift, these gas-pressurized shocks deliver exceptional durability and dent resistance for off-road use while maintaining smooth street comfort. By incorporating a unique valving system that reduces harshness, the RS5000X ensures your heavy-duty truck remains controlled over choppy terrain and stable during highway cruising.
Features
- Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping forces to ensure consistent ride quality across varying terrain.
- Gas-Pressurized Twin-Tube Design: The 150-PSI nitrogen gas charge minimizes aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
- Robust Shock Body: A heavy-duty 2.25-inch diameter body provides increased fluid capacity and structural integrity to ensure long-term reliability in harsh environments.
- Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The hardened rod surface resists scuffing and corrosion to ensure the integrity of the internal seals over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to work with a vehicle that has already been equipped with a 2.5-inch front leveling kit or lift springs.
What is the benefit of the twin-tube design on this model?
The twin-tube design provides an outer reserve tube that protects the internal working cylinder from trail damage, such as rock dings, ensuring the shock continues to function even if the outer body is slightly dented.
Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, based on the SKU configuration, this package includes two (2) front shocks to complete the front axle of your vehicle.
