Product Details

Rancho RS5000X part number RS55371 is a front suspension shock absorber for lifted Chevrolet and GMC applications. It is engineered for vehicles with front raised heights from 1.0 in. to 2.5 in. and is not for use with aftermarket shock spacers or relocation brackets. This shock is also not suitable for vehicles equipped with 4-wheel steering, Electronic Ride Control Package (ZX3), or Electronic Adjustable Suspension where noted in the fitment data. The RS5000X line focuses on controlled damping for daily driving and trail use, making it a practical replacement for owners of a Silverado 1500, Sierra 1500, Tahoe, Yukon, Suburban 1500, Avalanche 1500, or Yukon XL 1500 with the listed front suspension setup. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Excessive front-end bounce after bumps or dips
  • Reduced control on lifted front suspensions
  • Harsh or inconsistent damping from worn shocks
  • Nose dive during braking on full-size GM trucks and SUVs
  • Loose ride feel on pavement and uneven roads
