Rancho RS7MT 3-4″ Front Lift Shocks for 1961-1971 International Scout 80, 800

Part Number: RS77113

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT Monotube shocks are engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on classic International Scout 80 and 800 models. Designed specifically for vehicles with 3 to 4 inches of front lift, these shocks utilize a high-pressure nitrogen gas charge to eliminate aeration and provide immediate response to terrain changes. This monotube design is the ideal solution for drivers seeking to modernize their vintage Scout’s suspension with precision damping and fade-free performance during off-road use.

Features

• Monotube Construction: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides rapid response times and consistent damping to ensure maximum control on uneven surfaces.
• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): The fluid-gas separation chamber provides zero aeration of the hydraulic oil to ensure consistent performance during high-frequency cycling.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: The heavy-duty piston rod provides superior scuff and corrosion resistance to ensure a long service life in harsh environments.
• Application-Specific Valving: Custom-tuned damping specs provide the necessary rebound and compression control to ensure a stable ride for 3-4″ lifted Scouts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my International Scout?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles that already have 3 to 4 inches of front suspension lift installed.

What is the benefit of the Monotube design?
The monotube design allows for a larger piston and better heat dissipation, which prevents the shock from “fading” or losing effectiveness during heavy off-road use.

Are these sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS77113) includes two front shocks for a complete axle installation.
