Rancho RS5000X 5″ Rear Lift Shocks for 2011-2016 Ford F-350 4WD

Part Number: RS55261

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 5 inches of rear lift, these shocks address the common issue of harsh rebound and body roll in heavy-duty trucks. By combining a larger 2.25-inch body with gas-pressurization, they provide increased fluid capacity and consistent damping performance for both highway commuting and rugged work environments.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuitry provides a smooth transition during initial impacts to ensure driver comfort on uneven pavement.
• Dynamic Rebound Disc: A high-flow internal design provides controlled energy dissipation to ensure vehicle stability when navigating off-road terrain or hauling heavy loads.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurization: 150 PSI gas charge provides a pressurized barrier against oil aeration to ensure consistent damping force without fade.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A specialized 16mm hardened rod provides superior corrosion resistance and seal lubrication to ensure long-term durability in harsh climates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Ford F-350 by 5 inches?
No, these shocks are designed to accommodate a vehicle that has already been equipped with a 5-inch rear lift kit. They provide the necessary length to ensure full suspension travel but do not create lift themselves.

What is the benefit of the RS5000X over a standard twin-tube shock?
The RS5000X features a larger body diameter and specialized “Cross-Tuned” valving, which offers a significant upgrade in heat dissipation and ride control compared to standard replacement shocks.

Do these shocks come with the boots included?
Yes, these Rancho RS5000X shocks include protective boots to shield the piston rod from debris, salt, and rocks.
