Rancho RS5000X 4″ Lift Shocks for 1980-1996 Ford F-100, F-150 4WD

Part Number: RS55117

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for lifted Ford trucks. Utilizing a sophisticated gas-pressurization process, these shocks minimize aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance during off-road use. Designed specifically for vehicles with a 4-inch lift, they provide the necessary travel and valving to manage larger tire masses while maintaining smooth street manners.

Features

• Crossed-Tuned Technology: A unique valve system provides custom-tuned damping to ensure a balanced ride between off-road capability and highway comfort.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and consistent performance.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in fluid aeration to ensure immediate response to terrain changes.
• Protective Boot: A durable polyvinyl accordion boot provides a shield for the shock rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.
