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

Part Number: RS77113

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT Monotube series is engineered to provide high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation for your Jeep DJ5. Specifically designed for vehicles with a 2.5-inch rear lift, these shocks utilize a high-pressure nitrogen gas charge to eliminate aeration and foaming. This ensures consistent damping performance and precise control whether you are navigating urban routes or uneven terrain.

Features

• Monotube Design: A 1.97-inch (50mm) bore provides increased fluid capacity to ensure rapid heat dissipation and fade-free performance.
• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): The high-pressure nitrogen gas charge separates the oil and gas to provide zero-aeration damping and immediate response.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty piston rod provides superior scuffing and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Hydraulic Rebound Stop: An internal plunger reduces impact harshness during full extension to ensure a smoother ride under extreme suspension travel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeep DJ5?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles that already have a 2.5-inch rear lift installed to ensure the piston operates within its optimal travel range.

What is the benefit of the Monotube design?
The monotube design allows for a larger piston and better cooling, which prevents the shock from becoming “soft” or losing damping power during heavy use.

Are these compatible with the AM General FJ-9?
Yes, these are specifically engineered for the 1972-1974 AM General FJ-9 US Postal models.
