Rancho RS5000X 4″ Front Lift Shocks for 1999-2004 Ford F-350 4WD

Part Number: RS55264

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to enhance the ride quality of your lifted Ford F-350. Engineered specifically for vehicles with a 4-inch front lift, these shocks solve the common issue of harsh ride compliance by using a unique valving system that transitions seamlessly between comfort and control. The gas-pressurized twin-tube construction provides exceptional durability and dent resistance, making them an ideal choice for work trucks and daily drivers that frequent off-road environments.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A specialized valve base system provides a progressive engagement curve to ensure smooth street comfort and responsive handling on rough terrain.
• Gas-Pressurized Twin-Tube: Low-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance under heavy workloads.
• 16mm Nitro-Carburized Rod: A heavy-duty hardened piston rod provides increased structural rigidity and scuff resistance to ensure a long service life in harsh conditions.
• Protective Boot: The included red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the oil seal to ensure debris and contaminants do not cause premature leaking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Ford F-350?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles that already have a 4-inch front lift kit installed to ensure proper suspension travel.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55264_n500) includes two front shocks for a complete front-axle installation.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design for an F-350?
The twin-tube design is highly durable; if the outer tube is dented by a rock or debris while off-roading, the inner cylinder (where the piston moves) remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.
