Smooth out the rough stuff on and off the pavement with the Rancho RS5000X Suspension Shock Absorber RS55268, a front-position shock built around Rancho's exclusive Cross Tuned technology. It installs as a direct-fit front replacement for the 2002-2006 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500, 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Classic, 2000-2006 Chevrolet Suburban 1500, 2000-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe, 1999-2006 GMC Sierra 1500, 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic, 2000-2006 GMC Yukon, and 2000-2006 GMC Yukon XL 1500. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.

  • Cross Tuned technology: an exclusive rebound valving system and advanced compression phase designed to improve overall on- and off-road handling and performance.
  • Strong and durable: 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.
  • Handles extreme temperatures: large twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid for cooler operation and the ability to withstand internal temperatures of -40 to 248°F.
  • Reduces fade: nitrogen gas pressurized to 150 PSI to minimize air-to-oil mixing that causes damping fade and foaming.

Progressive Engagement Valving and a Compression Control Valve are custom-tuned per vehicle, while a polyurethane rebound bumper, rubber bushings, and fluon-banded piston help absorb harshness. Backed by Rancho's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
