Rancho 14-18 Ford Pickup / F100 RS5000X Strut

The nitro-carburized piston rod on these Rancho RS5000X struts is a key detail, offering resistance to scuffs and corrosion. This means they're built to handle the elements and keep performing, whether you're on the pavement or heading off-road. They're specifically tuned for the 2014-2020 Ford F-150, aiming to improve both on- and off-road handling.

Rancho uses a unique valving system they call Progressive Engagement Valving, which is custom-tuned for your F-150. This helps absorb those initial impacts at lower speeds, smoothing out the ride and reducing harshness. The large twin-tube body is filled with fluid that can handle extreme temperatures, from -40 to 248°F, helping to prevent damping performance fade and foaming, especially during demanding use. A self-lubricating seal also helps retain gas and oil for quicker rebound and smoother compression.

You'll also find double-welded loops at stress areas for added strength, and a sintered iron piston for better structural integrity. The included polyvinyl protective boot shields the strut from road debris. These struts are designed to maintain vehicle control by regulating fluid transfer and absorbing impacts effectively.
