Product Details

The Rancho RS5000X RS55168 shock absorber represents an advanced suspension solution engineered for drivers who demand both on-road comfort and off-road capability. Built on decades of off-road racing heritage, this gas-charged shock delivers consistent performance across a wide range of driving conditions.

Advanced Valving Technology:

At the heart of the RS5000X is Rancho's patented rebound valving system paired with an advanced compression phase design. This unique valve configuration automatically adjusts damping forces based on driving conditions, providing a smooth ride on highways while maintaining control over rough terrain. The progressive engagement ensures optimal wheel contact and vehicle stability whether you're towing, hauling, or navigating washboard roads.

Key Features:

  • 10-stage velocity-sensitive valving for precise damping control
  • Gas-charged design prevents shock fade and aeration
  • Large 2-inch diameter piston for enhanced performance
  • Protective boot included to shield against debris and extend service life
  • All-weather fluid formulation maintains performance in extreme temperatures
  • Durable construction with corrosion-resistant finish

Benefits:

The RS5000X shock absorber improves vehicle handling, reduces body roll during cornering, and enhances braking stability. Whether used as an upgrade to worn factory shocks or as part of a complete suspension system, the RS55168 delivers the balanced performance Rancho is known for. The shock's consistent damping characteristics help maintain proper tire contact with the road surface, improving safety and extending tire life.

Backed by Rancho's limited lifetime warranty, the RS5000X is designed for long-term durability and dependable performance across thousands of miles of driving.

These people are just awesome! I got my Thule Bike Rack for a fraction of the cost compared to everywhere else. Shipping was very fast and cheap but when I received it there were a couple of missing hardware parts. Thule wanted to make me ship the whole thing back. Rob Fratu of Autoplicity took control of the situation and got Thule to ship me the missing parts and some extras, all within a couple of days. I cant remember a better experience with a retailer.
