What is the main advantage of a monotube damper design?

A monotube design separates the oil and nitrogen gas with a floating piston. This helps prevent aeration and foaming, leading to more consistent damping performance and better heat dissipation compared to traditional twin-tube dampers, especially under heavy use.

Does this rear damper come with all necessary mounting hardware?

This Ohlins rear replacement damper is sold individually and typically includes the damper itself. It is recommended to inspect your existing hardware for wear and tear, and to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for any specific hardware requirements or recommendations.

How does this damper differ from a stock Wrangler JK rear shock?

This Ohlins damper is specifically tuned for a 3.5-5 inch lift and utilizes a larger 2.0-inch monotube body with advanced valving. This setup is designed to provide more controlled damping, better heat management, and improved handling characteristics compared to the factory shock absorber.

Product Details

The Ohlins JEV 6V00 rear damper for your 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK is built with a 2.0-inch diameter body, offering a substantial platform for its internal valving and fluid. This damper is specifically tuned for Jeeps running a 3.5 to 5-inch suspension lift, providing controlled damping for off-road articulation and on-road stability. Ohlins is known for its advanced damping technology, and this rear unit brings that expertise to your JK, aiming to improve ride quality and handling when you're pushing your vehicle's limits.

This rear damper features a monotube design, which helps to dissipate heat more effectively than twin-tube designs, especially under sustained use like crawling over rocks or long stretches of washboard roads. The large 2.0-inch body also allows for more oil capacity, further aiding in consistent performance and preventing fade. The internal valving is pre-set for the intended lift height range, meaning it's engineered to work with the geometry and suspension travel of a lifted JK. While it's a direct replacement for the factory rear damper, its performance characteristics are a significant step up, offering a more refined and capable feel to your suspension.

When installing this rear damper, you'll want to ensure your Jeep's suspension geometry is set up correctly for the 3.5 to 5-inch lift range it's designed for. Proper alignment and checking other suspension components like control arms and track bars will help you get the most out of this Ohlins unit. This damper is sold individually, so you'll need to order two if you're replacing both rear units.
