Rancho RS5000X 0-1″ Lift Shocks for 1987-1995 Land Rover Range Rover

Part Number: RS55159 / RS55157

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for the classic Land Rover Range Rover. Utilizing a sophisticated gas-pressurized twin-tube design, these shocks are specifically configured for vehicles with 0-1 inch of lift. By implementing Rancho’s Crossed-Piston technology, these shocks manage fluid transition more effectively than standard dampers, ensuring a smooth street ride while maintaining the ruggedness required for light trail use.

Features

• Crossed-Piston Valve: An innovative eccentric disc valving system provides progressive damping curves to ensure controlled handling across varying terrain.
• Gas-Pressurized Twin-Tube: Low-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure consistent performance during extended cycling.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: A heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity and scuff resistance to ensure a long service life.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-density mounting material provides enhanced vibration dampening to ensure a quiet and comfortable cabin environment.
