Rancho RS5000X 4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2004-2008 Ford F-150 4WD

Part Number: RS55287

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series features a cross-tuned twin-tube design engineered to enhance both on-road comfort and off-road durability. Specifically configured for vehicles with a 4-inch rear lift, these shocks utilize a unique progressive engagement valving system to minimize harshness during initial impacts. This setup provides the ideal balance of smooth street performance and rugged resistance for your Ford F-150 or Lincoln Mark LT.

Features

• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and consistent damping during heavy use.
• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal valving provides a smooth transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure maximum control on uneven terrain.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 16mm rod provides superior corrosion resistance and structural integrity to ensure long-term reliability in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot: The included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against debris and moisture to ensure the longevity of the oil seal and piston rod.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened to accommodate Ford F-150 models that have already been modified with a 4-inch rear lift kit.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this SKU (2xRS55287) includes two rear shocks to complete the installation for both sides of your vehicle’s rear axle.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for daily driving; the outer reserve tube protects the inner pressure tube from dents caused by rocks or debris, ensuring the shock continues to function properly even in rugged conditions.
