Rancho RS7MT 0-2″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1973-1980 Chevy K10 4WD

Part Number: RS77118

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on vehicles with 0-2 inches of rear lift. Utilizing a sophisticated monotube design, these shocks provide the precision response needed for both off-road excursions and stable highway driving. By separating the gas and oil with a floating piston, the RS7MT eliminates oil aeration to ensure consistent damping force in demanding environments.

Features

• Monotube Construction: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides immediate response to terrain changes to ensure maximum tire-to-road contact.
• Internal Floating Piston: The physical barrier between nitrogen and hydraulic fluid provides zero aeration to ensure fade-free performance during aggressive cycling.
• Hardened Nitro-Coated Rod: A durable, corrosion-resistant piston rod provides superior seal protection to ensure a long service life in harsh conditions.
• High-Temperature Fluid: Specialized hydraulic oil provides consistent viscosity across a wide thermal range to ensure predictable handling regardless of climate.

Why Choose This Product?

• Engineering Advantage: The RS7MT utilizes a high-pressure monotube architecture which reacts significantly faster than traditional twin-tube shocks, making it the ideal choice for heavy-duty applications and larger tire setups.
• Performance Benefit: Drivers will notice a significant reduction in body roll and “mushy” suspension feel, gaining a firm, controlled ride that excels during towing or trail riding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my vehicle?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct travel lengths to accommodate vehicles already equipped with 0-2 inches of rear lift.

What is the benefit of a monotube shock over a twin-tube?
The monotube design features a single cylinder and a floating piston that keeps the gas and oil separate. This prevents foaming (aeration), allowing the shock to work harder and longer without losing damping effectiveness.

Are boots included with these shocks?
Yes, these Rancho RS7MT shocks include protective boots to shield the nitro-coated rod from rocks, dirt, and debris.
