Rancho RS5000X 3-4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1987-1996 Ford F-250 2WD
Part Number: RS55112
Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes a sophisticated twin-tube gas pressurized design to enhance the ride quality of your lifted Ford F-250. Engineered with a unique cross-tuned valve system, these shocks provide a significant improvement in handling and stability by reducing body roll and harsh impacts. Designed specifically for vehicles with 3 to 4 inches of rear lift, they offer the perfect balance of rugged durability for work and smooth comfort for daily driving.
Features
- Cross-Tuned Technology: A specialized valve base provides a progressive engagement of the valving to ensure a smooth ride over varying terrain.
- Twin-Tube Design: The 2.25-inch reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures and consistent performance.
- Nitrogen Gas Pressurization: A high-pressure gas charge minimizes aeration and foaming to ensure immediate response and control.
- 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty piston rod provides superior scuff resistance and protection against corrosion to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to accommodate Ford F-250 models that already have a 3″ to 4″ rear lift kit installed.
What is the benefit of the twin-tube design?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for trucks; the outer tube can take a dent from road debris without affecting the inner cylinder or the movement of the piston.
Are boots included with these shocks?
Yes, these RS5000X shocks include Rancho’s signature red protective boots to shield the piston rod from dirt and debris.
