Rancho RS5000X 3-4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1966-1969 Ford F-100 4WD

Part Number: RS55112

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X series utilizes an innovative cross-tuned twin-tube design to provide a significant upgrade in ride quality for lifted applications. Engineered for the 1966-1969 Ford F-100 4WD, these shocks feature a unique progressive engagement valving system that minimizes initial impacts and harshness. This specific configuration is optimized for vehicles with 3 to 4 inches of rear lift, ensuring the suspension maintains proper travel and control during both daily driving and off-road use.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A specialized twin-tube valve base provides increased fluid capacity to reduce internal temperatures and ensure consistent damping performance.
• Progressive Engagement Valving: Custom-tuned compression and rebound circuits provide a smooth transition between low and high-speed impacts to ensure maximum driver comfort on varied terrain.
• Gas Pressurized Design: Nitrogen gas charging provides immediate response and prevents oil aeration to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• Protective Boot: A durable red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift; they are specifically configured for vehicles that already have 3-4 inches of rear lift installed to ensure proper travel limits.

What is the benefit of the twin-tube design on this model?
The twin-tube design provides excellent durability and dent resistance, as an impact to the outer shell will not restrict the inner piston’s movement, ensuring you aren’t stranded on the trail.

Are these sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55112_n427) includes a pair of two (2) shocks for the rear of your vehicle.
