Rancho RS7MT 2.5″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1972-1975 Jeep CJ5, CJ6 2WD

Part Number: RS77113

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on both the Jeep CJ series and specialized utility chassis. Featuring a sophisticated monotube design, these rear shocks provide the precision damping required to eliminate aeration during spirited driving or heavy-duty use. Configured specifically for vehicles with a 2.5-inch rear lift, they ensure the suspension geometry remains optimized for stability and control.

Features

• Monotube Design: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a faster damping response to ensure consistent tire-to-road contact.
• Internal Floating Piston: The physical separation of gas and oil provides zero aeration to ensure fade-free performance in demanding environments.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: A 14mm piston rod provides superior scuff resistance and durability to ensure a long service life under harsh conditions.
• OE-Style Mounts: The application-specific L1 and loop-style bushings provide a precise fit to ensure a quiet, rattle-free installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these shocks compatible with factory height vehicles?
No, these shocks are specifically configured for vehicles with a 2.5-inch rear lift to ensure the piston operates within its optimal travel range.

Does the monotube design make the ride too stiff?
The RS7MT is tuned for precision; while firmer than a standard shock, it provides better control and eliminates the “floaty” feeling often associated with lifted Jeeps.

What is the benefit of the internal floating piston?
By separating the nitrogen gas from the hydraulic fluid, the shock prevents “foaming” or aeration, which allows the shock to maintain its damping force even during rapid cycling.
