Rancho RS5000X 2-3″ Front Lift Shocks for 1964-1974 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 4WD

Part Number: RS55113

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to enhance the ride quality of your lifted Toyota Land Cruiser or FJ-9. Engineered with a unique valving system, these shocks provide a smooth, comfortable street feel while maintaining the durability required for off-road excursions. By integrating gas-pressurized technology, the RS5000X minimizes aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance under varied conditions.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping stages to ensure controlled handling during abrupt maneuvers.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurization: High-pressure gas charge provides a quicker response rate to ensure the tires maintain constant contact with the road surface.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles already equipped with a 2 to 3-inch front lift kit to ensure proper suspension travel.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design provides an outer reserve tube that protects the inner working tube from dents and trail debris, ensuring the shock remains functional even in rugged environments.

What does the “X” in RS5000X stand for?
The “X” represents the Cross-Tune technology, which is a unique valving system developed by Rancho to provide a better balance between on-road comfort and off-road performance.
