Rancho RS5000X 0″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1975-1984 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 4WD

Part Number: RS55118

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series provides a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for the classic Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. Designed as a high-performance twin-tube shock, it utilizes a unique progressive engagement valving system to minimize harshness during initial impacts. This shock is configured for stock height (0″ lift) applications, offering a smooth street ride while maintaining the ruggedness required for off-road excursions. By reducing fluid aeration, the RS5000X ensures consistent damping performance across varying terrains.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping phases to ensure improved ride comfort on rough surfaces.
• Gas Pressurization: Nitrogen gas charging provides a reduction in oil foaming and aeration to ensure consistent performance under high-duty cycles.
• Enlarged Shock Body: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: Heavy-duty construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Land Cruiser?
No, these shocks are designed to work with your vehicle’s factory suspension height and do not provide any lift.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design for an FJ40?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-roading; if the outer tube is dented by a rock, the inner working tube remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.

Are the dust boots included?
Yes, this pair of shocks includes Rancho’s signature red protective boots to keep debris away from the piston rod and seals.
