Overview:

The Rancho RS7MT Shock is a high-performance monotube suspension upgrade engineered specifically for Jeep Wrangler JK models from 2007 through 2018. Designed for drivers who demand precise on-road handling combined with rugged off-road capability, these shocks excel in managing heat dissipation and maintaining consistent performance under extreme conditions.

Built to withstand harsh environments, the RS7MT is ideal for Jeep enthusiasts seeking durable, reliable suspension components that enhance vehicle control and comfort across diverse terrains.

Key Features:

Rancho’s RS7MT shocks incorporate advanced technology and robust construction to ensure superior performance and longevity:

• Precision Tuned: Application-specific valving with Deflective Disc technology offers digressive, linear, or progressive tuning for balanced on- and off-road handling.
• Heat Management: Large 2-inch monotube body filled with all-weather fluid maintains cooler operation and consistent damping, even in temperatures from -40°F to 248°F.
• Dirt Wiper Sealing System: Integrated dirt wipers prevent moisture, dirt, and debris from contaminating internal components, preserving shock integrity.
• Durable Piston Rod: 14mm hardened chrome piston rod resists scuffs and corrosion for extended service life.
• Internal Rebound Bumper: Smooths out ride harshness and reduces noise and vibration for enhanced comfort.
• Full-Floating Dividing Piston: Maintains constant pressure against hydraulic oil, reducing aeration and shock fade during demanding use.
• Robust Construction: Double-welded loops at stress points, hot-formed reserve tube, and double-strength closure method ensure structural integrity.
• Easy Installation: Application-specific mounting fits directly without the need for additional sleeves or hardware.
• Attractive Finish: Black satin coating with distinctive Rancho red logo provides a bold, rugged appearance.

Construction & Design:

The RS7MT shock absorber features a large 46mm fluon-banded piston that ensures consistent sealing between the piston and monotube, delivering precise control and responsive handling. The monotube design allows for superior heat dissipation compared to twin-tube shocks, making it well-suited for extreme off-road conditions and heavy-duty applications. The piston rod is hardened and chrome-plated to resist corrosion and physical damage, while the integrated dirt wiper sealing system protects internal components from contaminants. Rancho’s attention to detail extends to the double-welded loops and hot-formed reserve tube, which provide enhanced durability and reliability under stress.

Installation & Fitment:

The Rancho RS7MT shocks are designed for a direct bolt-on installation on Jeep Wrangler JK models from 2007 to 2018, including Rubicon, Sahara, Sport, Sport S, Unlimited, and special anniversary editions. No additional modifications, sleeves, or hardware are required, allowing for a straightforward upgrade process. This ensures a hassle-free installation experience, whether performed by a professional technician or an experienced enthusiast.
