Rancho 94-01 Dodge Pickup / Ram 1500 1/2 Ton Front RS5000X Shock

The 16mm nitro-carburized piston rod on this Rancho RS5000X shock absorber is built to resist scuffs and corrosion, which is a solid starting point for improved suspension performance on your 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, or 3500. Rancho's exclusive valving system is custom-tuned for each specific vehicle application, meaning it works with your truck's suspension to absorb impacts effectively and maintain control, whether you're on the highway or tackling rougher terrain.

This shock absorber uses a large twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid, allowing it to operate cooler and handle extreme temperatures from -40 to 248°F. This helps reduce damping performance fade, especially during demanding use. The design also incorporates a low-friction seal to keep gas and oil contained for quicker rebound and smoother compression, while a fluon-banded piston enhances responsiveness to changing road conditions for a more comfortable ride. Double-welded loops at stress areas and a 35mm sintered iron piston add to its overall structural integrity.

You'll also find a polyurethane rebound bumper and rubber bushings that help absorb ride harshness. The Progressive Engagement Valving is specifically tuned to reduce initial impacts at low speeds, minimizing a rough ride. This shock absorber comes with Rancho’s Limited Lifetime Warranty, giving you confidence in your purchase.
