Description of πŸš— Experience Superior Ride Quality with the Rancho RS55118 RS5000X Shock Absorber

IMPROVED HANDLING AND PERFORMANCE -- Cross Tuned technology featuring exclusive rebound valving system and advanced compression phase improves overall handling and performance on and off road. MINIMIZES ROUGH RIDE -- Exclusive Progressive Engagement Valving is custom-tuned for each vehicle to help reduce initial impacts at low speeds and minimizes a rough ride. STRONG AND DURABLE -- Features a 16mm nitro-carburized piston rod to resist scuffs & corrosion, double-welded loops at stress areas, 35mm sintered iron piston for enhanced structural integrity and polyvinyl protective boot. HANDLES EXTREME TEMPERATURE CHANGES -- Large twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid allows for cooler operation, increased vehicle control and ability to withstand internal temperatures of -40 to 248Β°F. SMOOTH PERFORMANCE -- Polyurethane rebound bumper and rubber bushings help absorb ride harshness while the fluon-banded piston enhances responsiveness to changing road conditions for an overall smoother ride. REDUCES FADE -- Nitrogen gas pressurized to 150 PSI to minimize air-to-oil mixture to reduce damping performance fade and foaming. MAINTAINS VEHICLE CONTROL -- Compression Control Valve is custom-tuned for each vehicle to regulate fluid transfer to absorb impacts without disc flutter and help maintain shock motion control. BUILT TO LAST -- Low-friction, self-lubricating seal retains gas and oil for quicker rebound and smoother compression while the application-specific piston delivers heightened control of shock motion due to the expanded piston area.

Awesome Performance for Heavy Machines

Based on our own experience, this shock absorber delivers a smooth and stable ride for our heavy-duty equipment. It effectively controls vibrations and ensures a comfortable ride throughout. The product's efficient operation and durability make it a perfect choice for industrial and scientific applications. The only downside we found was that the installation process requires a little extra effort, but it's definitely worth the effort. Overall, we highly recommend this shock absorber for anyone

Pros
  • Durable construction for long-lasting performance.
Cons
  • Slightly more expensive than other shock absorbers in its class.

Very comfortable ride on my 1991 Jeep Wrangler

Very comfortable ride on my 1991 Jeep Wrangler! However, my jeep has a 2.5 inch lift kit so the shock body meets the axle tube. I ended up having to order clamps to move the Rubicon Express shock. Part number RE2007.

Pros
  • CONTINUOUSNESS - Polyurethane rebound bumpers and rubber bushings help absorb bumps during the ride and a PTFE banded piston improves response to changing road conditions for a smoother ride
Cons
  • Some bugs

They work great in the rear of my 1993 YJ Jeep with .

They work great in the rear of my 1993 YJ Jeep with a 6" rise. Simply measure where your bolts are held compressed and uncompressed in your suspension to ensure they fit. It actually made my ride on the road bearable without breaking the bank.

Pros
  • IMPROVED HANDLING AND PERFORMANCE -- Cross Tuned Technology with exclusive rebound valving and improved compression phase improves overall handling and performance on and off the road
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
