Bring back factory ride height and a controlled front end with the Rancho strut assembly — the RS5000X Loaded Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly, MPN RS551784. This front unit drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2007-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2007-2018 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2007-2020 Chevrolet Tahoe; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. As a complete strut and coil spring assembly, it pairs the damper, application-specific coil spring and upper mounting plate in one pre-assembled unit.
Nitrogen gas pressurized to 60 PSI to minimize air-to-oil mixing and reduce damping fade and foaming. Progressive Engagement Valving is custom-tuned per vehicle to help soften low-speed impacts. Backed by Rancho's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
What is the Rancho loaded strut and what does it do?
It's a pre-assembled front strut, coil spring and upper mount in one unit. It damps suspension motion and supports ride height, and installs without a spring compressor.
Which trucks and SUVs does this strut assembly fit?
It fits many vehicles, among them the 2007-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2007-2018 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2007-2020 Chevrolet Tahoe. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for your exact vehicle.
Do I need a spring compressor to install it?
No. Because it ships as a complete unit with the coil spring and upper mounting plate already assembled, no spring compressor is needed for strut replacement.
How does this Rancho strut handle rough roads?
It uses Cross Tuned technology with an exclusive rebound valving system, plus Progressive Engagement Valving custom-tuned per vehicle to help reduce low-speed impacts on- and off-road.
Should I replace both front struts at once?
Struts are sold individually. Replacing both front sides together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride and handling.
