Take control of heavy loads and rough terrain with the KYB MonoMax Shock Absorber (MPN 565105), a high-pressure monotube gas shock built for hardworking trucks. This KYB shock absorber installs in the rear position on the 2003-2010 Dodge Ram 2500 and Dodge Ram 3500, the 2011-2013 RAM 2500, and the 2011-2012 RAM 3500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full application details.
The large-bore MonoMax is a heavy-duty monotube design that adds stability for heavier, more powerful, and higher center-of-gravity trucks. Its tough valving adjusts to driving conditions for fade-free performance whether you tow a trailer, haul heavy loads, or head off-road.
- Up to 40% more damping: delivers up to 40% more damping performance than standard shock absorbers for improved handling and control.
- Monotube gas construction: a high-pressure monotube gas design built for durability and fade-free performance.
- Zinc-coated piston ring: provides a positive seal in the most extreme conditions.
- Off-road dust boot: a rubber boot protects the shaft and keeps dirt and debris away from the seals.
- Safety-system ready: engineered to help vehicles equipped with electronic safety systems such as ESC and ABS.
Worn shocks can show up as excessive bouncing, body roll, nose-dive under braking, or uneven tire wear. If a failed rear shock is the cause, this KYB gas shock absorber replaces it. Sold individually; replace both sides on the same axle together for balanced ride control.
