Product Details
Rancho RS5000X shocks are part of the RS5000X product line, which focuses on controlled damping for trucks and SUVs that see mixed driving conditions.

Confirm raised height and body style details against the fitment notes for your specific Chevrolet or GMC model. Compare compressed and extended lengths to the original shock before installation.
