Rancho RS7MT 2.5-4″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1987 GMC V1500 4WD

Part Number: RS77112

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on vehicles equipped with 2.5 to 4 inches of rear lift. Utilizing a sophisticated monotube design, these shocks provide the precision response required for both technical off-road maneuvers and stable highway cruising. By separating the gas and oil with a floating piston, the RS7MT eliminates oil aeration and fade, ensuring consistent damping performance regardless of terrain intensity.

Features

• Monotube Design: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a lightning-fast response rate to ensure maximum tire-to-road contact.
• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): The full-floating dividing piston separates the shock oil from the high-pressure nitrogen gas to ensure fade-free performance in extreme conditions.
• Hardened Nitro-Coated Rod: A 14mm nitro-carburized piston rod provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Application-Specific Valving: Custom-tuned shim stacks provide precise control for the GMC V1500 platform to ensure a balanced and stable ride.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift; they are specifically lengthened and valved to accommodate vehicles already equipped with a 2.5″ to 4″ lift kit.

What is the benefit of a monotube shock over a twin-tube?
Monotube shocks use a single cylinder to dissipate heat more efficiently and a floating piston to prevent gas and oil from mixing, which prevents performance fade during aggressive driving.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this SKU (2xRS77112) includes a pair of 2 shocks for the rear of your vehicle.
