Rancho RS7MT 2-3″ Front Lift Shocks for 1953-1975 Jeep M38A1 4WD

Part Number: RS77113

Summary: The Rancho RS7MT Monotube series is engineered for high-performance handling and rapid heat dissipation on classic 4WD applications. Specifically configured for vehicles with 2-3 inches of front lift, these shocks utilize a high-pressure nitrogen gas charge to eliminate aeration and foaming. This ensures consistent damping precision whether navigating rugged trails or maintaining stability on the street, providing a significant upgrade over traditional twin-tube designs.

Features

• Monotube Design: A high-pressure nitrogen gas charge provides rapid heat dissipation to ensure consistent performance during aggressive off-road use.
• Hardened Nitro-Carburized Rod: The premium surface finish provides superior corrosion resistance to ensure long-term seal integrity in harsh environments.
• Internal Floating Piston (IFP): The physical separation of gas and oil provides zero aeration to ensure immediate valving response and fade-free damping.
• Application-Specific Valving: Precision-tuned internal shim stacks provide optimized control for lifted geometries to ensure a balanced and predictable ride.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my Jeep?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to work with vehicles already equipped with a 2-3 inch suspension lift.

What is the benefit of a Monotube over a Twin-Tube shock?
The Monotube design features a single cylinder and a floating piston that keeps the oil and nitrogen gas separate, preventing the oil from foaming (aeration) during high-speed cycling.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS77113) includes a pair of two shocks for the front of your vehicle.
