The Rancho RS5000X shock absorber is built to improve your Jeep's handling and performance, whether you're on the highway or exploring off-road.

This shock absorber features a large twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid, which helps it operate cooler and withstand extreme temperatures from -40 to 248°F.
