Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1997-2002 Ford Expedition 4WD

Part Number: RS55112

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for lifted applications. Engineered to handle the increased demands of a 4-inch rear lift, these shocks feature a unique valving system that minimizes harshness over road imperfections. The gas-pressurized construction ensures consistent damping performance, making them an ideal solution for Ford Expedition owners seeking a balance between daily street comfort and off-road resilience.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A specialized valve base provides specific compression and rebound tuning to ensure smooth ride transitions on varied terrain.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-performance pivot points provide enhanced durability and reduced deflection to ensure precise suspension response.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Ford Expedition?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to accommodate a Ford Expedition that has already been equipped with a 4-inch rear lift kit.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; if the outer body is dented by a rock or debris, the inner working tube remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning properly.

Are boots included with these shocks?
Yes, these Rancho RS5000X shocks include protective boots to shield the piston rod from salt, mud, and road grime.
