Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series leverages advanced CrossTune technology to provide a significant upgrade for your Ford Ranger or Mercury Mountaineer. Designed specifically for vehicles with torsion bar front suspensions and 1-2.5 inches of lift, these twin-tube shocks utilize a unique valving system that balances on-road comfort with rugged off-road durability.
