Rancho RS5000X 1-3″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1980-1986 Ford F-250 4WD

Part Number: RS55112

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for your Ford F-250. Engineered with a unique progressive engagement valving system, these shocks effectively reduce initial impacts and maintain control during off-road excursions. Configured for 1-3 inches of rear lift, they offer the perfect balance of durability and smooth street comfort for classic 4WD applications.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound discs provide a smoother transition between damping stages to ensure consistent ride quality over varying terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: A nitrogen-charged low-pressure design provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure reliable performance during sustained use.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity and corrosion resistance to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot Included: A durable polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against road debris and moisture to ensure the integrity of the oil seal.
