Product Description

The Rancho RS5406 RS5000 steering damper is a rugged front stabilizer designed for 1999-2004 Ford F-250/F-350 Super Duty and 2002-2004 Excursion trucks. Built with twin-tube nitrogen-charged construction, it actively dampens steering vibration, wheel shimmy, and bump steer--providing smoother steering feel whether towing, off-roading, or cruising.

Featuring a protective boot, velocity-sensitive valving, and durable white finish, the RS5406 is ideal for heavy-duty duty, lifted, or oversized tire setups. It installs easily with Rancho's RS5542 bracket kit (on models without factory damper) and comes with a limited lifetime warranty when used on the vehicle it's originally installed on.
