Rancho RS5000X 0-2″ Front Lift Shocks for 1986-1998 Ford F-350 4WD Single Rear Wheel

Part Number: RS55165

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series redefines the entry-level performance shock by utilizing a sophisticated twin-tube design tailored for the 1986-1998 Ford F-350. Engineered to handle both daily commuting and rugged work environments, these shocks provide enhanced durability and dent resistance compared to monotube alternatives. By focusing on smooth street comfort and consistent damping, this set ensures your F-350 remains composed regardless of road conditions or cargo load.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping forces to ensure maximum comfort during daily driving.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressurized Design: An 18mm nitro-carburized piston rod and increased oil capacity provide superior durability and dent resistance to ensure long-term reliability in harsh environments.
• Dynamic Rebound Disc (DRD): A unique internal brass flow plug provides additional oil control during high-velocity impacts to ensure the vehicle maintains stability on rough terrain.
• Protective Boot Included: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the oil seal and piston rod to ensure protection against rocks, mud, and debris.
