Vivid Racing Gear Select the year of your Ford F-250:
Alright, let’s talk about these ADS Mesa 2.5-inch rear shocks. If you’re looking to beef up your Ford F-250 or F-350 (1999-2016), you’re in for a treat. These aren’t just any shocks; they’re built to take a beating and keep on performing. The shock body is coated with a UV-stable ceramic powder that not only looks good but is tough enough to handle whatever the road—or trail—throws at you.
One of the standout features here is the internal floating piston (IFP). This little guy helps keep the damping consistent, which means whether you’re cruising on the highway or bouncing over rocks, you get a smooth ride. The large 2.50-inch shock body increases fluid capacity, so you can say goodbye to shock fade when you’re pushing your rig off-road. It’s like having a trusty sidekick that never lets you down.
The hard-chrome plated steel shafts are designed to resist corrosion, which is a big deal if you’re driving through muddy trails or snowy roads. Plus, the spacers are made from 304 stainless steel—so you know they’re not going to rust out on you anytime soon. And if you ever need to rebuild them, no worries! These shocks are fully rebuildable, which is a huge plus for anyone who likes to keep their gear in top shape.
Now, let’s get into the specs. These babies have a travel length of 9 inches, which gives you plenty of room to flex those tires. They’re gas-charged for a better response, and with a lift range of 2.5 to 4 inches, they’ll fit right in with your setup without needing any fancy upper control arms. Just mount them up, and you’re good to go.
Here’s a quick rundown of the features:
- Internal floating piston (IFP) for consistent damping
- Large bore 2.50-inch body to resist shock fade
- UV-stable ceramic powder-coated steel for durability
- Black anodized billet aluminum caps
- 0.875-inch hard-chrome plated steel shafts
- 304 stainless steel spacers
- High-carbon chrome plated spherical bearings
- Premium full synthetic shock oil
- Fully rebuildable design
In terms of fitment, these shocks are made for:
- Ford F-250 4WD (1999-2016)
- Ford F-350 4WD (1999-2016)
So, if you’re ready to upgrade your suspension and take your off-roading to the next level, these ADS Mesa shocks are a solid choice. Don’t forget to check out other essentials like a Flowmaster exhaust or some custom shifters to round out your ride. Happy trails!
