Product Details

Rancho RS5000X shocks are part of the RS5000X product line, which focuses on controlled damping for mixed on-road and off-road use. This shock uses a unique valving setup and compression-focused tuning to help manage rear suspension movement on Toyota Tacoma, Toyota Pickup, and Toyota 4Runner applications. If you are replacing a worn rear shock on a Toyota Tacoma rear right or rear left application, or servicing a Toyota 4Runner rear suspension, RS55180 provides the correct mounting style and dimensions for the listed fitments.

Compatible With: 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma rear right; 1998-2003 Toyota Tacoma rear right with TRD Package and rear raised height 0 in.; 1995-1998 Toyota Tacoma rear left with Rancho Suspension System and rear raised height 1.0 in. to 1.5 in.; 1989-1995 Toyota Pickup rear; 1986-1989 Toyota 4Runner rear.

Common Problems This Shock Can Address

Excessive rear bounce after bumps or dips
Reduced control from a worn rear shock absorber
Unstable ride quality on lifted or raised-height rear suspension setups
Rear-end movement that feels loose during braking or cornering
Uneven damping performance on mixed street and trail driving

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear position, ride height, and mounting style before installation. RS55180 uses loop bushing mounts at both ends, so confirm bushing ID and overall bushing length against the vehicle’s existing hardware. Check compressed and extended lengths to ensure proper suspension travel at full droop and full compression, especially on raised-height Tacoma and 4Runner applications.

For fitment-specific replacement work, match the vehicle exactly: Fits 1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma, rear right; Fits 1998-2003 Toyota Tacoma, rear right with TRD Package; Fits 1995-1998 Toyota Tacoma, rear left with Rancho Suspension System; Fits 1989-1995 Toyota Pickup, rear; Fits 1986-1989 Toyota 4Runner, rear.
