Rancho RS7MT 2.5″ Lift Shocks for 1972-1974 Jeep DJ5

Part Number: RS77113

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT Monotube series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on your 1972-1974 Jeep DJ5. Specifically configured for vehicles with a 2.5-inch lift, these shocks utilize a high-pressure nitrogen charge to eliminate oil foaming and aeration. This precision-tuned damping ensures a stable, responsive ride whether navigating delivery routes or uneven terrain, providing a significant upgrade over standard twin-tube designs.

Features

• Monotube Construction: A 1.97-inch (50mm) bore provides increased fluid capacity to ensure rapid heat dissipation and fade-free performance.
• High-Pressure Nitrogen Charge: A 200 PSI gas charge provides immediate response to road inputs to ensure consistent damping control.
• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): The physical barrier between nitrogen gas and hydraulic fluid provides aeration-free operation to ensure predictable handling in demanding conditions.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: A 14mm piston rod provides superior corrosion resistance and durability to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeep?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured and valved to accommodate the travel requirements of a Jeep DJ5 with an existing 2.5-inch lift kit.

What is the benefit of a monotube shock over a standard shock?
The monotube design features a single cylinder and a floating piston that separates the oil and gas. This prevents “shock fade” caused by oil foaming, ensuring consistent performance even during continuous use.

Are boots included with these shocks?
Yes, these Rancho RS7MT shocks include protective red boots to shield the nitro-carburized piston rods from road debris and contaminants.
