Smooth out the ride and take back control with the Rancho RS5000X shock absorber RS55116 — a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube damper that mounts in the front or rear position depending on the application. This Rancho shock absorber drops in on a wide range of trucks and SUVs, including the 1980-1996 Ford F-150, the 1961-1977 and 1980-1996 Ford F-250, and the 2000-2004 Nissan Frontier — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 70 applications.

  • Cross Tuned technology: an exclusive rebound valving system paired with an advanced compression phase to improve overall handling and performance on and off road.
  • Strong and durable: 16mm nitro-carburized piston rod that resists scuffs and corrosion, double-welded loops at stress areas, a 35mm sintered iron piston, and a polyvinyl protective boot.
  • Handles temperature swings: a large 2 1/4-inch twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid for cooler operation, rated to withstand internal temperatures of -40 to 248°F.
  • Reduces fade: nitrogen gas pressurized to 150 PSI to minimize air-to-oil mixing that causes damping fade and foaming.

A Compression Control Valve and Progressive Engagement Valving are custom-tuned for each vehicle to absorb impacts and help reduce a rough ride. Backed by Rancho's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
