Keep your hardworking full-size truck or van planted and controlled with the Monroe Gas-Magnum Rear Suspension Shock Absorber 34985. Engineered for midsize and full-size trucks and vans, it installs in the rear position as a direct-fit replacement for the 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500 and K1500, the 1988-2000 Chevrolet C2500, C3500, K2500 and K3500, the 1988-1990 and 1995-2000 Chevrolet C35, plus the matching GMC C1500 and K1500 (1988-1999) and GMC C2500, C3500, K2500 and K3500 (1988-2000) — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Bigger bore and reserve tube: a larger bore and a bigger 2-in. reserve tube hold more oil for greater fluid capacity — up to twice that of standard 1-in. bore shocks — so it works more efficiently with less effort.
  • Built to last: a heavy-duty nitrocarburized rod (non-dust-shield units only) and a sintered iron piston enhance durability, while a self-lubricating fluid seal reduces friction against the piston rod.
  • Nitrogen gas-charge: maintains tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade for improved ride and handling.
  • All-weather fluid: OE all-weather fluid with special modifiers handles temperature extremes and helps smooth rod reaction, and full-displaced valving on compression cycles delivers controlled ride and handling.

Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and exclusive Feel the Difference Guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Monroe Gas-Magnum 34985?

It is a rear suspension shock absorber for midsize and full-size trucks and vans, designed to provide firm control without a harsh ride.

Which vehicles does it fit?

It fits the rear position on Chevrolet and GMC C1500/K1500 (1988-1999) and C2500, C3500, K2500 and K3500 (1988-2000), plus the Chevrolet C35 (1988-1990 and 1995-2000). See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

What are signs a shock absorber may need replacing?

Signs include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose-dive under braking, uneven tire wear, or fluid leaking from the shock body. Diagnose the cause before replacing, since other suspension parts can cause similar symptoms.

Should I replace shocks in pairs?

Replacing both shocks on the same axle as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride and handling. This listing is for one shock; order two for a complete rear-axle replacement.

What makes Gas-Magnum different from a standard shock?

It uses a larger bore and a 2-in. reserve tube with up to twice the fluid capacity of standard 1-in. bore shocks, plus a nitrogen gas-charge that reduces aeration and shock fade.
