Rancho RS5000X 2-3″ Front Lift Shocks for 1969-1973 Jeep Jeepster & Commando
Part Number: RS55113
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a patented progressive engagement valving system to bridge the gap between street comfort and off-road durability. Specifically engineered for Jeep Commando and Jeepster models with 2-3 inches of front lift, these twin-tube shocks are designed to handle the increased leverage of larger tire fitments. The gas-pressurized design minimizes aeration and foaming, ensuring consistent damping performance during sustained trail use or highway travel.
Features
- Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual transition between low and high-speed damping to ensure a smooth ride over small bumps while maintaining control during hard impacts.
- Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen charging provides a consistent force against the hydraulic oil to ensure zero aeration and reduced shock fade.
- Twin-Tube Construction: A 2.25-inch outer body provides high oil capacity and physical protection for the inner working cylinder to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
- Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure seal longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my Jeep?
No, these shocks do not provide lift. They are specifically valved and sized to accommodate vehicles that already have 2-3 inches of suspension lift installed.
What is the benefit of the RS5000X gas-pressurized design?
The nitrogen gas charge prevents the hydraulic fluid from foaming (aeration), which allows the shock to maintain its damping force even during rapid cycling on rough terrain.
Are boots included with these shocks?
Yes, these shocks include protective red boots to shield the piston rod from debris, salt, and rocks.
