Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 2007-2016 Ford F-450 Cab & Chassis

Part Number: RS55042

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative CrossTune Technology to provide a significant upgrade over factory damping for the Ford F-450 Super Duty. These twin-tube gas pressurized shocks are engineered to handle the high-stress demands of Cab & Chassis work trucks, offering a refined ride without sacrificing heavy-duty durability. By optimizing the transition between valve stages, these shocks deliver consistent control whether the vehicle is loaded or unladen.

Features

• CrossTune Technology: A unique base valve system provides a progressive engagement throughout the piston stroke to ensure a balanced ride across varying terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Twin-Tube: The 150 PSI nitrogen gas charge minimizes oil foaming and aeration to provide consistent damping performance during heavy-duty cycles.
• Full-Displaced Valving: Application-specific tuning provides better control of unsprung mass to ensure improved tire-to-road contact.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot protects the hardened chrome piston rod from debris to ensure long-term seal integrity.
