Soak up rough trails and smooth out the highway with the Rancho RS5000X Suspension Shock Absorber (RS55256), a rear shock built for on- and off-road duty. This Rancho shock absorber drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2006 Jeep TJ and 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler, making it a straightforward Jeep Wrangler shock absorber upgrade for the rear axle.

  • Cross Tuned technology: An exclusive rebound valving system paired with an advanced compression phase to improve overall handling and performance on and off road.
  • Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned for each vehicle to help reduce initial impacts at low speeds and minimize a rough ride.
  • Strong and durable build: 16mm nitro-carburized piston rod to resist scuffs and corrosion, double-welded loops at stress areas, a 35mm sintered iron piston, and a polyvinyl protective boot.
  • All-weather twin-tube design: A large twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid runs cooler and withstands internal temperatures of -40 to 248°F; nitrogen pressurized to 150 PSI helps reduce damping fade and foaming.

A polyurethane rebound bumper, rubber bushings, and a fluon-banded piston help absorb harshness for a smoother ride, and it's backed by Rancho's Limited Lifetime Warranty. Sold individually; replacing the rear pair together is recommended for balanced ride quality.
