This proprietary process developed by the ride engineers at Rancho will elevate the overall handling and performance of your vehicle on and off-road. Each RS5000X shock is gas pressurized to 150 PSI.* The twin tube, gas pressurized shock has a variety of advantages including minimizing air-to-oil mixture that can cause foaming and shock fade. Gas pressurization also provides a mild boost of spring rate to the vehicle. The RS5000X series features a 2-1/4-inch diameter shock body. A larger shock body allows for increased fluid capacity to operate cooler and to increase vehicle control and performance at varying speeds and terrains. The RS5000X series combines a larger shock body with all-weather fluid, allowing the shock to withstand internal temperatures between -40 and 248 degrees Fahrenheit. The Rancho RS5000X series design includes patented progressive rebound and compression discs. At lower speeds or in the earlier stages of the shock's travel, an eccentric disc in the valve shim stacks will engage the valving at lower frequencies, helping to control the energy of motion as the cycle of the shock increases or decreases in its action. When hitting a pothole, off-road trail obstacle or similar activity, Rancho's Progressive Engagement Valving allows for early flow of fluid, helping to reduce harsh initial impacts and to control the flow of fluid in a progressive, gradual manner through the valving. During on- or off-road driving activities like washboarding or when travelling a rough fire road, the early flow of fluid helps to minimize a "rough" ride as the piston movement is able to glide through the initial travel motion of the shock with minimal ground impact or force. If needed, the Progressive Engagement Valving will further engage to maintain control and stability.

Functions well. Like other reviews, they are a little stiff at first but loosen up after a few hundred miles. The dust boots are the biggest let down as they aren’t secured at the bottom. You have to use a zip tie which is not very effective

These shocks took away the basketball effect while driving. Now I don't need to worry about road issues causing a rough ride.

Installed on a 2005 GMC 1500 extended cab. Pickup has 190k miles with the OEM shocks still on but leaking. 45 minute install for me, ride was a little rough for the 1st 10 miles but after break in there's a noticeable difference. Ride is much smoother of course.

Bought several other cheaper sets of shocks before I bought these(acdelco & gabriel) both made my 2000 silverado 1500 z71 ride like an old farm truck. Buy once cry once, these shocks are legit, seems to just glide over potholes, you feel them but barely. Also, you can install without taking tire off, just turn the wheel to one side super easy install
