Rancho RS7MT 2.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 1972-1975 Jeep CJ5, CJ6

Part Number: RS77113

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation. Designed specifically for the front of 1972-1975 Jeep and US Postal FJ-9 models configured with a 2.5-inch lift, these monotube shocks provide a precise, consistent response that twin-tube shocks cannot match. By utilizing a high-pressure nitrogen charge and a floating dividing piston, the RS7MT eliminates oil aeration and shock fade during demanding driving conditions.

Features

• Monotube Design: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides immediate damping response to ensure precise vehicle control on and off-road.
• Internal Dividing Piston: A full-floating piston separates the gas and oil to prevent aeration and foaming to ensure consistent performance during rapid cycling.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: A 14mm piston rod provides superior scuff resistance and durability to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.
• Hydraulic Rebound Stop: An internal plunger reduces metal-to-metal contact during full extension to ensure a smoother ride at the limits of travel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeep?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and sized for vehicles already equipped with a 2.5-inch lift kit.

What is the benefit of a monotube shock over a twin-tube?
Monotube shocks like the RS7MT dissipate heat faster and use a dividing piston to prevent the oil from foaming, which maintains consistent damping under heavy use.

Are boots included with these Rancho shocks?
Yes, these shocks come equipped with protective boots to shield the nitro-carburized rod from debris and contaminants.
