Rancho Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:RS55254A
Tame the ride of your vintage 4x4 with the Rancho Suspension Shock Absorber RS55119, a hydraulic damper that controls suspension movement so your springs settle quickly instead of bouncing. Depending on the application, it installs in the front or rear position and fits an extensive list of classic trucks and Jeeps — including the 1943-1958 JEEP WILLYS, 1959-1981 JEEP CJ5, 1976-1981 JEEP CJ7, 1961-1967 DODGE D300 SERIES, 1961-1965 INTERNATIONAL SCOUT 80, 1985-1995 SUZUKI SAMURAI and 1964-1983 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 26 applications.
Shocks wear gradually, so signs one may need replacing include a bouncy or floaty ride, excessive body movement over bumps, and fluid leaking from the shock body. Sold individually; replacing shocks in axle pairs is recommended for balanced, even ride control.
