Front Shock Absorber for 1997-2003 Ford F-150 - KYB 565088

Keep every heavy-hauling and off-road mile under control with the KYB shock absorber MonoMax 565088, a high-pressure monotube gas shock built specifically for trucks. It installs as a direct-fit front replacement for the 1997-2003 Ford F-150, giving the extra stability that heavier, more powerful, or high-center-of-gravity vehicles demand.

• Large-bore monotube gas design: the MonoMax is a heavy-duty monotube shock that delivers up to 40% more damping performance than standard shock absorbers, automatically adjusting to driving conditions for fade-free control.
• Zinc-coated steel piston ring: a work-ready ring that provides a positive seal in the most extreme conditions.
• Off-road rubber dust boot: protects the shaft and helps keep dirt and debris away from the seals.
• Electronic-safety-system friendly: engineered to help vehicles equipped with ESC, ABS, and similar systems.

With a strong reputation for trucks that do real work, tow a trailer, haul heavy loads, or run a lift, the MonoMax is a solid upgrade over a tired original. Worn shocks can show up as excess bouncing, front-end nose-dive under braking, poor body control, or cupped tire wear; if worn front shocks are the cause, this KYB gas shock absorber replaces one of them. Sold individually — order two to replace the front pair together for balanced ride control.
