Rancho RS5000X 3-4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1967-1968 GMC K1500 4WD
Part Number: RS55112
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a patented progressive rebound and compression disc system to significantly improve the handling and ride quality of your GMC K1500. Designed for vehicles with 3 to 4 inches of rear lift, these twin-tube gas-pressurized shocks provide exceptional durability and dent resistance for off-road environments. By reducing aeration and shock fade, this setup ensures a smooth, controlled street ride while maintaining the ruggedness required for 4WD applications.
Features
- Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound discs provide a gradual transition of fluid flow to ensure a smooth ride over small bumps while maintaining control during heavy impacts.
- Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a consistent oil-to-gas interface to ensure reduced aeration and fade during spirited driving.
- 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term seal integrity and resistance to debris.
- Self-Lubricating Seal: A specialized PTFE-coated seal provides reduced friction and heat buildup to ensure a longer service life in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do these shocks provide the lift for my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and lengthened to be compatible with GMC K1500 models that have already been equipped with a 3-4″ rear lift kit.
What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-roading; if the outer tube is dented by a rock, the inner tube (where the piston travels) remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.
Are boots included with these shocks?
Yes, these shocks include Rancho’s signature red protective boots to shield the piston rod from dirt, mud, and debris.
