Rancho RS5000X 2.5″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2011-2013 Ram 2500 4WD

Part Number: RS55269

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossTune technology to deliver a significant upgrade in ride quality for your Ram 2500. Designed as a high-performance twin-tube solution, these shocks feature a unique valving system that balances on-road comfort with off-road durability. Configured for vehicles with a 2.5-inch rear lift, they provide the necessary travel and damping control to handle increased ride heights without compromising stability.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A progressive engagement valving system provides a custom-tuned ride to ensure consistent control across varying terrains.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurization: A 150 PSI gas charge minimizes air-to-oil mixture (foaming) to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• 2.25-inch Reserve Tube: A heavy-duty twin-tube body provides increased oil capacity to ensure lower operating temperatures and protection against stone bruising.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: A hardened piston rod provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured to work with vehicles that already have a 2.5-inch rear lift kit installed.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for daily driving and off-roading; if the outer tube is dented by a rock, the inner cylinder remains functional, ensuring you aren’t stranded.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55269_n279) includes two rear shocks for a complete axle installation.
