The Rancho RS5000X Gas Shocks Set is a high-performance suspension component designed for 1968-1980 GMC K15/K1500 Pickup 4WD models. This set includes four twin-tube, gas-pressurized shocks with a 2-1/4-inch diameter shock body, engineered to enhance vehicle handling and off-road capability. Featuring patented progressive rebound and compression discs, these shocks provide smooth, controlled ride quality by engaging fluid flow gradually during impacts. Gas pressurization to 150 PSI minimizes foaming and shock fade, while all-weather fluid ensures reliable operation across temperatures from -40 to 248 degrees Fahrenheit. The shocks incorporate low friction, self-lubricating seals for durability and consistent performance, making them ideal for both on-road and off-road driving conditions.
Designed specifically for 4WD vehicles at factory height or with up to 2-inch lifts, these shocks are a direct bolt-on replacement that reuses factory hardware, including washers, bushings, nuts, and mounting bolts. They are compatible with vehicles with no suspension modifications or minor lift systems, providing improved stability and control over rough terrains. The kit contains four shocks and four shock boots, suitable for front and rear suspension upgrades. Perfect for off-road enthusiasts and daily drivers alike, these shocks deliver a balanced combination of comfort, durability, and performance in demanding driving environments.
