Rancho RS5000X 4″ Front Lift Shocks for 2011-2013 Ram 2500/3500 4WD

Part Number: RS55317

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to deliver enhanced durability and smooth street comfort for leveled or lifted heavy-duty trucks. Engineered to handle the increased unsprung weight of larger wheel and tire combinations, these shocks mitigate harsh impacts through a progressive engagement valving system. This pair is specifically configured for vehicles with a 4-inch front lift, providing the necessary travel to maintain ride quality on and off the road.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique valve base system provides specific compression and rebound tuning to ensure consistent handling on varied terrain.
• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a soft ride during initial travel and increased control during high-velocity impacts to ensure bottom-out protection.
• Gas Pressurized Design: Nitrogen gas charging reduces aeration and shock fade to ensure reliable performance during sustained heavy-duty use.
• Heavy-Duty Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures under load.
