Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1981-1993 Ford Bronco 4WD

Part Number: RS55118

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube gas pressurized design to enhance the ride quality of your lifted Ford Bronco. Engineered for durability and street comfort, these shocks feature a unique valving system that minimizes harshness during daily driving while providing necessary damping for off-road excursions. Configured specifically for vehicles with 4 inches of rear lift, they provide the extra length required to maintain proper suspension travel and prevent bottoming out.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: A custom-tuned shim stack provides a soft initial response that firms up under load to ensure controlled handling across varying terrains.
• Large 2.25-inch Body: An increased fluid capacity provides better heat dissipation to ensure consistent damping performance during repetitive cycling.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurization: Charging the shock with nitrogen gas provides a reduction in oil foaming and aeration to ensure the shock maintains its valving force under high-speed use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 16mm rod provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Ford Bronco?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and configured for a Bronco that already has a 4-inch rear lift kit installed.

Are these sold as a pair or individually?
This specific SKU (2xRS55118) includes a pair of two (2) rear shocks.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for off-roading; if the outer body is dented by a rock, the inner cylinder remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.
