Rancho RS7MT 2.5″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1981 Jeep Scrambler 4WD

Part Number: RS77118

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT monotube shock absorber 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 diameter, this shock eliminates aeration and oil foaming to maintain consistent damping during aggressive off-road use. Its monotube design ensures precise response to terrain changes, providing a significant upgrade over standard twin-tube shocks for drivers seeking stability and control.

Features

• Monotube Construction: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides rapid heat dissipation to ensure consistent performance during high-intensity driving.
• Internal Floating Piston: The physical separation of gas and oil provides zero aeration to ensure fade-free damping on rough trails.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: A 14mm piston rod provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• OE-Style Mounts: Durable rubber bushings provide noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) reduction to ensure a quiet and comfortable ride.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do these shocks provide the 2.5 inches of lift?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and length-tuned to work with a vehicle that has already been equipped with 2.5 inches of rear lift height.

What is the benefit of the RS7MT monotube design over a twin-tube?
The monotube design allows for faster heat dissipation and prevents the oil from foaming (aeration), which means the shocks won’t lose their firmness even after hours of bumpy off-road use.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS77118_n813) includes two rear shocks for a complete axle installation.
