Part Number: RS77119

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on your Jeep DJ5. Featuring a precise monotube design, these front shocks utilize a nitrogen gas charge to provide an immediate response to road irregularities. This technology eliminates oil aeration and foaming, ensuring consistent damping force even during demanding use. Designed for stock height applications, these shocks offer a significant upgrade in vehicle stability and ride control for the classic US Postal FJ-8A chassis.

Features

• Monotube Construction: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides rapid heat dissipation to ensure consistent performance during aggressive driving.
• Internal Floating Piston: The dedicated dividing piston separates gas and oil to provide zero aeration and fade-free damping.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: A 14mm piston rod provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• OE-Style Mount: The application-specific mounting hardware provides a direct-fit installation to ensure a secure and quiet connection to the chassis.
