Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 1969-1973 Jeep Jeepster, C101, Commando 4WD
Part Number: RS55119
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a patented Progressive Engagement Valving system to significantly improve the handling and ride quality of your classic Jeep or AM General vehicle. Designed for stock height applications, these twin-tube shocks feature a larger 2.25-inch body for increased fluid capacity and cooler operation during extended use. This gas-pressurized solution provides the perfect balance of rugged durability for off-road trails and smooth, controlled damping for street driving.
Features
- Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned internal shim stack provides restricted flow at low speeds and increased flow as piston speed rises to ensure a smooth ride without sacrificing control.
- Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance in varied terrain.
- Enlarged Shock Body: A 2.25-inch outer diameter provides increased oil capacity to ensure lower operating temperatures and reduced fade during heavy-duty use.
- Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.
