Part Number: RS55042

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series defines the standard for durable, everyday performance for heavy-duty work trucks. This twin-tube gas pressurized shock is engineered to provide smooth street comfort while maintaining the ruggedness required for 4WD applications. By utilizing a unique Cross-Tune valve system, these shocks provide improved handling and reduced harshness on the Ford F-350 chassis, making them an ideal solution for restoring ride quality at stock height.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between damping cycles to ensure consistent ride quality on uneven terrain.
• Nitrogen Gas Charge: Pressurized gas displacement provides reduced aeration and foaming to ensure fade-free performance during extended highway or job site use.
• Enlarged 2.25-inch Body: An increased fluid capacity provides better heat dissipation to ensure the shock maintains optimal damping force under heavy loads.
• All-Weather Fluid: Specialized synthetic oil contains modifiers to handle extreme temperature swings to ensure reliable operation in both freezing and high-heat environments.
