Part Number: RS55118

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series redefines the classic twin-tube performance for the Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. Designed to handle the rugged demands of off-road exploration while maintaining a smooth street ride, these shocks feature a unique cross-tuned valve system. This Tier 4 shock provides exceptional durability and dent resistance, ensuring your classic FJ stays composed over washboard roads and uneven terrain. Configured for 2 to 3 inches of rear lift, they offer the perfect balance of travel and control for your restored or modified 40 Series.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth ride during normal driving while rapidly increasing damping force during impacts to ensure maximum vehicle control.
• Large 2.25-inch Body: An increased fluid capacity provides better heat dissipation to ensure consistent performance during extended off-road use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A 16mm heavy-duty rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Gas Pressurization: A low-pressure Nitrogen charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and fade-free damping.

Why Choose This Product?

• Engineering Advantage: Rancho’s patented Cross-Tuned technology uses a specific base valve to manage fluid flow, allowing for better initial impact absorption.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Land Cruiser?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized to accommodate a vehicle that has already been equipped with 2 to 3 inches of rear lift springs.

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

What is the benefit of the RS5000X over a standard shock?
The RS5000X features a larger body and cross-tuned valving, which reduces the harshness typically found in older twin-tube designs while providing better control off-road.
