RanchoRS5000X RS55042 Suspension Shock Absorber

Easy install. Looks great and most importantly the ride on my super duty is factory smooth. Don’t accidentally throw away the rancho sticker in the box. Not that I did or anything lol.

Works great on my 2008 f350 super duty 4wd short bed. Bought another name brand first that is no longer made in USA and we're not any good. These are great.

I installed these on a 2016 F250 6.2, and it was mostly straight forward. They work VERY well for street driving. It is the fact that an empty truck designed to handle a good amount of weight makes it difficult to distinguish between bad shocks and just a rough ride. Sure enough! Over 65k miles you get used to how horrible it can get. SUCH a difference!!For the install…they didn’t pay attention to the welds that secure the nut on the body. You are SUPPOSED to use a wrench on the body to stop the shaft from spinning when you tighten the top with a ratchet. In my opinion DO NOT think about filing or grinding the weld so a wrench will fit. Mine looked like I’d grind off most of the material. So vice grips it was. Now, it worked, but why on earth am I reaching for vice grips on a brand new product? Just saying, that needs to be addressed.

This Rancho product matches the OEM equipment that came with my 2005 Ford F-350 XLT FX-4 one ton pick up truck.You must be courageous to replace these shocks yourself. You must have patience, liquid wrench, WD-40, a good breaker bar, good wrenches and a drill handy so you can drill a nut once it stops turning. If you need information go to YouTube and you will find plenty of videos of how to replace your shocks. One shock took me an hour and the other one took me about 2.5 hours to remove. Once the old ones are removed it's a breeze to install the new ones. Once installed you will notice a big difference. My old shocks were shot. One shock had blown seals and the shock oil went everywhere in the wheel well. Now that the shocks are replaced I have a smooth ride once again. I encourage everyone to purchase this set from Rancho. I own a one ton truck and I tow a Contractor Trailer. ITS not bouncy anymore. Make sure you have the right tools before taking on this job. Some people recommend taking the tires off. I never did. If I can do it so can you. Good Luck!

I replaced original shocks 60,000 miles, 2021 f350 6.7, what an improvement in the ride, feels like a new truck. Installing was no problem.

I've had these on the front of my 2012 F-250 4x4 for just over a year. When the bridge transitions are as bad as we have here, nothing is going to cure it all. Anywhere else, they make it ride better than stock. Definitely an upgrade, for about the same money.

Great price and fit perfectly

Obviously a returned item. Shock box end was ripped off and parts bag was bouncing around.

Perfect excellent product

THIS is not for a 2009 f350 super duty as listed
