Rancho RS7MT 0″ Lift Shocks for 1969-1973 Jeep Jeepster, C101, Commando 4WD

Part Number: RS77119

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT monotube shock series is engineered to provide high-performance handling and stability for your classic Jeepster or Commando. Designed specifically for vehicles at stock ride height, these shocks utilize a high-pressure nitrogen gas charge to eliminate aeration and shock fade during spirited driving. The monotube design ensures rapid heat dissipation and precise valving response, transforming the ride quality of your vintage 4WD into a more controlled and modern driving experience.

Features

• Monotube Design: A 1.97-inch (50mm) bore and high-pressure nitrogen charge provides consistent damping performance to ensure zero aeration even in demanding conditions.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty piston rod provides superior resistance to scuffing and corrosion to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): The physical separation of gas and oil provides immediate damping response to ensure precise vehicle control over washboard terrain.
• Hydraulic Rebound Stop: An internal travel limit mechanism provides a cushioned transition at full extension to ensure protection of the shock and suspension components.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeepster?
No, these shocks are configured for 0″ of lift and are designed to replace factory-length dampers. They do not provide any additional ride height.

What is the benefit of a monotube shock over a twin-tube?
Monotube shocks use a single cylinder to house the oil and gas, separated by a floating piston. This allows for a larger piston area and better cooling, resulting in faster response times and no foaming of the oil.

Are these shocks compatible with the US Postal FJ-8A?
Yes, according to the fitment data, these shocks are specifically compatible with the 1969-1973 AM General US Postal FJ-8A models.
