Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 2017-2025 Ford F-350 4WD Chassis Cab

Part Number: RS55042

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to deliver a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for the Ford F-350 and F-550 Chassis Cab. Utilizing a sophisticated gas-pressurized twin-tube design, these shocks minimize aeration and foaming to maintain consistent damping under heavy work cycles. This configuration is specifically tuned to provide smooth street comfort while maintaining the ruggedness required for heavy-duty commercial applications at stock ride height.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique valve system provides a progressive engagement curve to ensure controlled handling during both low-speed maneuvers and high-speed impacts.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a reduction in fluid aeration to ensure fade-free performance during extended towing or hauling.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty black polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against road debris.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: A specialized surface treatment provides increased hardness and corrosion resistance to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Ford F-350?
No, these shocks are configured for vehicles at 0 inches of lift (stock height) and do not provide any lift themselves.

What is the benefit of the gas charge in the RS5000X?
The nitrogen gas charge keeps the internal hydraulic fluid under pressure, which prevents bubbles from forming (aeration) and ensures the shock maintains its damping force during heavy use.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55042) includes a pair of two front shocks.
