Part Number: RS55235

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a sophisticated Progressive Engagement Valving system to provide a significant upgrade over factory ride quality. Designed for the Ford Expedition 2WD, these gas-pressurized twin-tube shocks are engineered to minimize aeration and foaming during spirited driving. The result is a durable, reliable damper that maintains smooth street comfort while offering the ruggedness required for light-duty hauling and daily utility.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a gradual transition between low and high-speed damping to ensure a smooth ride over varying road surfaces.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The 5/8-inch nitro-carburized piston rod provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot Included: A high-quality polyvinyl accordion boot protects the oil seal and piston rod from road debris to ensure a longer service life for the damper.
