Rancho 99-04 Ford Pickup / F450 Series Super Duty Rear RS5000X Shock

When you're looking to replace the rear shocks on your 1983-2011 Ford Ranger, the Rancho RS5000X is a solid option. These shocks are built to handle both daily driving and more demanding off-road conditions, offering an improved feel for your truck. They work by controlling the spring's oscillation, which helps keep your tires planted on the road or trail for better control.

Rancho has put some thought into how these shocks are built. They feature a large, twin-tube body filled with fluid that can handle a wide range of temperatures, from -40 to 248°F, helping to prevent overheating and maintain consistent performance. The piston rod is nitro-carburized to resist corrosion and scuffs, and the loops where the shock attaches are double-welded for extra strength. Inside, a 35mm sintered iron piston and a unique valving system are tuned specifically for your Ranger to manage fluid transfer and absorb impacts smoothly, reducing harshness and improving overall handling.

You'll also find a polyurethane rebound bumper and rubber bushings to help soak up road imperfections, contributing to a smoother ride. The nitrogen gas pressurization to 150 PSI helps prevent the oil and gas from mixing, which reduces damping performance fade, especially during extended use. Rancho backs these shocks with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, giving you peace of mind with your purchase.
