Rancho RS5000X 0″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1997-1999 Ford F-250 4WD

Part Number: RS55251

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative Cross Tuning system to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for the Ford F-250. Engineered with a large 2.25-inch body and a twin-tube gas pressurized design, these shocks provide enhanced oil capacity to maintain cool operating temperatures during heavy work cycles. By integrating a unique progressive engagement valving system, these shocks deliver a smooth street ride while maintaining the firmness required for light-duty hauling and off-road stability.

Features

• Cross Tune Technology: A unique valve base system provides a progressive damping curve to ensure a balance between highway comfort and off-road control.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: A nitrogen-charged low-pressure design reduces aeration and foaming to ensure consistent performance under varying load conditions.
• 2.25-inch Shock Body: An increased fluid capacity housing provides better heat dissipation to ensure fade-free operation during towing or hauling.
• All-Weather Protection: A durable liquid metallic finish and included protective boot provide a barrier against corrosion and debris to ensure long-term hardware integrity.
