Rancho RS7MT 0-1.5″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1976-1981 Jeep CJ5, CJ7 4WD

Part Number: RS77113

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation in demanding off-road environments. Utilizing a sophisticated monotube design, these rear shocks provide the precision response required for Jeep CJ owners who transition frequently between highway speeds and technical trails. Configured for 0-1.5 inches of lift, they ensure consistent damping performance by eliminating oil aeration and fade even during aggressive cycling.

Features

• Monotube Design: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides a quicker damping response to ensure consistent control on unpredictable terrain.
• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): The physical barrier between nitrogen gas and hydraulic fluid provides zero aeration to ensure fade-free performance during high-frequency cycling.
• Hardened Nitro-Chablis Piston Rod: A heavy-duty 14mm rod diameter provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term durability against rock deflection and debris.
• OE-Style Mounts: Application-specific mounting hardware provides a direct-fit interface to ensure a secure, rattle-free installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this shock create lift for my Jeep?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct extended and compressed lengths to accommodate vehicles already equipped with 0 to 1.5 inches of rear lift.

How does the monotube design improve my ride?
The monotube design uses a high-pressure gas charge to keep the oil and gas separate. This prevents foaming (aeration), which allows the shock to maintain its damping force consistently, even as temperatures rise during off-road use.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU includes 2 shocks, providing a complete solution for your vehicle’s rear axle.
