Rancho RS7MT 0-1.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1976-1981 Jeep CJ5, CJ7 4WD

Part Number: RS77119

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on classic Jeep applications. Utilizing a sophisticated monotube design, these shocks provide the precise damping required to manage 0-1.5 inches of front lift height. By separating the gas and oil with a floating piston, the RS7MT eliminates aeration and shock fade, ensuring consistent control during aggressive off-road maneuvers or highway transit.

Features

• Monotube Construction: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a lightning-fast response rate to ensure maximum tire-to-ground contact.
• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): The dedicated dividing piston separates the shock oil from the nitrogen gas to provide fade-free performance in demanding environments.
• Hardened Nitro-Chalked Rod: The heavy-duty piston rod provides superior corrosion resistance and seal longevity to ensure a long service life.
• Sealing System: A specialized high-temp multi-lip seal provides a redundant barrier against contaminants to ensure leak-free operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeep?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and length-tuned to work with vehicles currently equipped with 0 to 1.5 inches of front lift.

What is the benefit of a Monotube over a Twin-Tube shock?
Monotube shocks like the RS7MT dissipate heat more efficiently and respond faster to terrain changes because the single-wall design allows the oil to cool directly against the shock body.

Does this kit include hardware?
Yes, this pair of shocks includes the necessary bushings and mounting hardware required for a standard installation on the front of your Jeep CJ.
