Rancho RS5000X 0″ Lift Shocks for 1980-1998 Ford F-250 2WD

Part Number: RS55235 / RS55236

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a patented progressive engagement valving system to deliver a refined ride for your Ford F-250. Designed for stock height applications, these twin-tube gas pressurized shocks provide the perfect balance between on-road comfort and off-road durability. The increased fluid capacity of the 2.25-inch body ensures cooler operating temperatures and consistent damping performance under heavy loads or towing conditions.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned internal discs provide a smooth transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure maximum tire-to-road contact.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A nitrogen gas charge provides a consistent damping response to ensure reduced aeration and foaming.
• 2.25-inch Shock Body: An oversized outer tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure lower operating temperatures during heavy-duty use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 16mm rod construction provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
