Smooth out every mile with the Rancho RS5000X shock absorber (RS55274), a rear-position damper engineered for improved on- and off-road handling. It fits many vehicles and drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the listed trucks and SUVs, including the 2002-2008 Dodge Ram 1500, the 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500, and the 1999-2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application list.
At its core is Rancho's exclusive Cross Tuned technology, pairing a rebound valving system with an advanced compression phase to improve overall handling and performance.
- Custom-tuned valving: Progressive Engagement Valving is tuned for each vehicle to help reduce initial low-speed impacts and minimize a rough ride, while the Compression Control Valve regulates fluid transfer.
- Strong and durable: a 16 mm nitro-carburized piston rod resists scuffs and corrosion, with double-welded loops, a 35 mm sintered iron piston, and a polyvinyl protective boot.
- All-weather operation: a large twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid is designed to withstand internal temperatures of -40 to 248°F for cooler operation.
- Smoother ride: a polyurethane rebound bumper and rubber bushings help absorb ride harshness, the fluon-banded piston enhances responsiveness, and nitrogen gas pressurized to 150 PSI helps reduce damping fade and foaming.
Backed by Rancho's Limited Lifetime Warranty. Sold individually; for balanced damping, replacing both sides of the axle together is recommended.
