Product Description

The Rancho RS55328 RS5000X Rear Shock Absorber is a high-quality direct-fit replacement shock specifically engineered for the rear suspension of 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK models, including both 2-door and Unlimited versions with 4-wheel drive. Featuring Rancho's RS5000X gas-charged twin-tube design, this shock is built to deliver smooth and controlled damping across a range of road and trail conditions, improving rear suspension stability and ride quality compared to worn or aging factory shocks.

Designed for stock ride height and light rear lift setups up to ~2", the RS55328 combines progressive engagement valving with tuned compression control to enhance handling without harshness. Its nitro-carburized piston rod and full-displaced piston bore promote durability and consistent performance, while the included protective boot helps shield internal components from dirt and debris. This rear shock is ideal for Jeep Wrangler JK owners looking to restore rear suspension performance or upgrade worn shocks for daily driving and light off-road use. Always confirm your specific suspension setup and lift before installation.
