Product Description

The Rancho RS55129 RS5000X rear shock absorber is a direct-fit replacement performance shock engineered for select 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee and 1984-1990 Jeep Wagoneer 4WD vehicles. Built with Rancho's Cross Tuned technology and advanced compression valving, this shock improves ride control by progressively engaging fluid damping to smooth low-speed impacts while maintaining stability over rough terrain - making it well-suited for both street and light off-road use.

Featuring a durable gas-charged design with a nitro-carburized piston rod and a robust 35 mm shock bore, the RS5000X shock offers dependable service life and enhanced handling feel compared to many economy replacements. It installs easily using the vehicle's existing mounts and is sold individually - so pairing left and right rear shocks is recommended for balanced performance.
