Rancho RS5000X 2.5″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2011-2013 Ram 3500 4WD

Part Number: RS55269

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide exceptional durability and smooth street comfort for your heavy-duty truck. Engineered specifically for vehicles with a 2.5-inch rear lift, these shocks solve the harsh ride quality often associated with lifted suspensions by utilizing a unique valving system that transitions seamlessly between on-road stability and off-road absorption. This gas-pressurized solution is ideal for Ram 3500 owners looking for a reliable, “set-it-and-forget-it” upgrade that maintains control under load.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth initial response to ensure maximum comfort during daily commuting.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides a consistent damping force to ensure minimized aeration and shock fade during spirited driving.
• Twin-Tube Construction: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity and dent resistance to ensure internal components remain functional in harsh environments.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: Heavy-duty finishing provides superior corrosion resistance to ensure a long service life against road salt and debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do these shocks provide 2.5 inches of lift?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to accommodate vehicles that already have 2.5 inches of rear lift installed.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; if the outer shell is dented by a rock or debris, the internal piston remains protected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.

Are these sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55269) includes two rear shocks for a complete axle installation.
