Rancho RS9000XL 4″ Front Lift Shocks for 1987-1996 Ford F-250/F-350 4WD

Part Number: RS999165

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series defines versatile performance for heavy-duty applications, featuring a globally recognized 9-position manual tuning knob. This Tier 2 adjustable system allows Ford owners to instantly transition from a soft street ride to a firm setting optimized for towing or aggressive off-road use. Engineered for vehicles with a 4-inch lift, these shocks provide the necessary travel and damping control to manage the increased center of gravity on classic Ford 4WD platforms.

Features

• MyRide 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping resistance to ensure the driver can fine-tune ride quality for specific payloads or terrain.
• Large Diameter Body: A massive 2.75-inch reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during heavy-duty use.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurization: High-pressure gas charging provides a barrier between the oil and air to ensure consistent damping by eliminating foaming and aeration.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical shield for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against road debris.

Why Choose This Product?

• Engineering Advantage: Unlike “one-size-fits-all” shocks, the RS9000XL manual override allows for precise geometry and load compensation specific to Ford’s Twin-Traction Beam or Solid Axle front ends.
• Performance Benefit: Drivers gain the ability to dial in “firm” settings to eliminate front-end “plowing” during towing and “soft” settings for daily commuting comfort.

The RS9000XL features a manual 9-position knob at the base of the shock. You can turn it by hand to increase or decrease damping resistance without tools.

Will these shocks lift my Ford F-250?

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS999165) includes a pair (2) of front shocks to cover both the driver and passenger sides.
