Excellent Upgrade for Automotive Suspension

The Rancho RS5000X Shocks are a fantastic addition to your automotive suspension system. Based on our own experience, these shocks provide excellent handling and stability on both smooth roads and rough terrain. The red finish adds a stylish touch under the vehicle. The only drawback is that the shocks can be a bit pricier compared to others on the market, but the quality justifies the cost. Overall, we highly recommend these shocks for any automotive suspension upgrade.

Pros
  • Improved ride and handling performance
Cons
  • Less affordable compared to other entry-level shocks on the market

Better handling, cool look

After installing non-original torsion wrenches on my 2004 Ram 1500. It ran rough, stock dampers were at their limit. They bring back that good factory ride that's now long enough for the suspension level. Installation was easy, the product corresponds to the description.

Pros
  • Rugged finish
Cons
  • Some cons

Better than the Bilstein I replaced

Nice to drive and better than the Bilstein shocks which I removed and replaced with these. I have had Bilstein shock absorbers (blue/yellow) for 3 months. Bilstein was too harsh. These ranchos have a little more body roll when cornering, but I prefer a softer, smoother ride overall, especially since my 03 Ram 1500 4x4 is 3 inches. torsional stroke. I would buy them again and will probably buy them when they wear out. I'm surprised by the ride and the price for what you get.

Pros
  • HANDLES EXTREME TEMPERATURE CHANGES - Large twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid provides cooler operation, improved vehicle control and ability to withstand internal temperatures from -40 to 248Β°F
Cons
  • Operating Speed
