Rancho Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:RS55241

Take the harshness out of every trail and highway mile with the Rancho RS5000X Suspension Shock Absorber (RS55241), a rear-position damper that installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2006 Jeep TJ and 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler. This Rancho shock absorber is built around the brand's exclusive Cross Tuned technology to sharpen on- and off-road handling.

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

A polyurethane rebound bumper and rubber bushings absorb ride harshness, while a low-friction, self-lubricating seal retains gas and oil for quicker rebound. For even ride quality, replace the rear Wrangler shock absorber as a matched pair. Backed by Rancho's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
