Part Number: RS55119
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a sophisticated CrossTunne Valve system to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for your Suzuki Samurai. Designed specifically for applications with a 1.5-inch rear lift, these gas-pressurized twin-tube shocks excel at absorbing harsh impacts while maintaining smooth highway manners. The durable construction and specialized valving ensure consistent performance and dent resistance during off-road excursions.
Features
- CrossTune Technology: A unique base valve design provides a progressive engagement to ensure balanced control during both high-speed impacts and low-speed maneuvers.
- Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The nitrogen-charged twin-tube body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure lower operating temperatures and consistent damping on rough terrain.
- Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot protects the piston rod from debris to ensure long-term seal integrity in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my Suzuki Samurai?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct travel lengths to accommodate a Suzuki Samurai already equipped with a 1.5-inch rear lift kit.
What is the benefit of the RS5000X twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-roading; if the outer tube is dented by a rock, the inner cylinder (where the piston moves) remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.
Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55119) includes a pair of two (2) rear shocks for a complete axle installation.
