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

Part Number: RS55112

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a sophisticated twin-tube gas pressurized design to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for lifted Ford trucks. Engineered specifically for vehicles with a 4-inch rear lift, these shocks feature a unique Cross-Tuned valve system that balances on-road comfort with off-road durability. The large body diameter and increased fluid capacity ensure consistent damping performance, effectively managing the unsprung weight of larger tire and wheel combinations common on classic 4WD pickups.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A proprietary progressive rebound and compression disc system provides custom-tuned damping to ensure controlled handling across varied terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: The nitrogen gas-charged 2.25-inch body provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure consistent performance during heavy-duty cycles.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a shield for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against trail debris.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The hardened rod surface provides superior corrosion resistance and durability to ensure reliable operation in harsh environments.
