Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your Ford F-150.

• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance under load.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty piston rod provides increased structural rigidity and corrosion resistance to ensure a long service life.
• Protective Boot: Included polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against debris and moisture to ensure the longevity of the oil seal.
