Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 1975-1991 Ford E-100, E-150

Part Number: RS55039

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series is engineered to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your classic Ford or Mazda van/truck. Utilizing a sophisticated gas-pressurized twin-tube design, these shocks effectively manage energy transfer to reduce harshness on uneven pavement. This specific pair is configured for stock height (0″ lift) applications, delivering a smooth street feel while maintaining the rugged dent resistance required for workhorse vehicles.

Features

• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smoother transition between movements to ensure consistent comfort during daily driving.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The nitrogen-charged twin-tube body provides a secondary fluid path to ensure the shock remains functional even if the outer shell is dented by road debris.
• Protective Boot: A durable poly-vinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure the internal seals remain free from dust and contaminants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks are designed for vehicles at 0″ of lift (stock height). They are intended to replace factory shocks and do not provide any lift height on their own.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design for my Ford E-150?
The twin-tube design is highly durable for vans and work trucks; if the outer tube is dented by a rock or debris, the inner cylinder (where the piston moves) remains unaffected, allowing the shock to continue functioning.

Are these sold as a pair?
Yes, this SKU (2xRS55039) includes two front shocks to complete the front axle of your vehicle.
