Summary: The Rancho RS7MT Monotube series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on the Jeep Scrambler. Utilizing a high-pressure nitrogen gas charge and a large-bore monotube design, these shocks provide immediate response to terrain changes while eliminating oil aeration. This precision-tuned damping solution is specifically configured for 2.5-inch lift heights, ensuring the front suspension maintains stability and control during both highway transit and off-road excursions.

Features

• Monotube Design: A 1.97-inch (50mm) bore provides increased fluid capacity to ensure consistent damping performance under high-stress conditions.
• High-Pressure Nitrogen Charge: A 14mm hardened chrome piston rod and internal dividing piston provide rapid response times to ensure zero aeration and fade resistance.
• Vehicle-Specific Tuning: Application-specific valving provides optimized damping for the Jeep Scrambler’s unique geometry to ensure a balanced, controlled ride.
• Sealing System: A high-quality multi-lip seal provides a robust barrier against contaminants to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeep?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles already equipped with a 2.5-inch suspension lift to ensure proper travel and prevent bottoming out.

What is the benefit of a Monotube over a Twin-Tube shock?
The Monotube design features a single cylinder and a dividing piston, which allows for faster heat dissipation and prevents the oil from mixing with gas, resulting in more consistent performance during heavy use.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, based on the SKU configuration, this product includes 2 front shocks to complete the front axle of your vehicle.
