Default Rancho RS5000 question.

One of my front shocks went out in the front and I won't be replacing them with an OEM part cuz that gets expensive.

I'm having a bit of trouble nailing down the right model. Namely because of all the 2wd, 4wd, xlt, Edge options when I have the FX4 model.

I think I found the correct model but if anyone with some more experience in this could chime in that would be great. I do not have a lift, the truck is all stock, and I do not plan on lifting it in the near future. Truck details in my sig.

Front

Rear

Those should be right. Go on Rancho's site and they'll give you a part number

Those are the correct ones. I put those on mine a couple years back. For easier removal of your old shocks, spray the bolts with some PB Blaster a time or two a day or so before you take them out.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I went to the Rancho site before but I selected the wrong thing (Rancho suspension not stock suspension). Did it again and these are the model that come up. I'll be ordering them soon

If it's for your year 4x4, it'll fit your truck. Essentially, your truck is a XLT 4x4.
