Keep your hardworking truck planted and controlled with the Monroe Gas-Magnum Front Suspension Shock Absorber 34813. Engineered for full-size trucks and vans, it installs as a direct-fit front shock for the 2003-2010 Dodge Ram 3500 and 2011-2013 RAM 3500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details. Its larger bore and 2-in. reserve tube hold more oil than standard 1-in. bore shocks, so the shock works efficiently for firm control without a harsh ride.

  • Designed for trucks and vans: features full-displaced valving on compression cycles to help deliver controlled ride and handling.
  • Built to last: heavy-duty nitrocarburized rod (on non-dust-shield units) and a sintered iron piston enhance durability, while a self-lubricating fluid seal reduces friction against the piston rod.
  • Consistent ride: OE all-weather fluid uses special modifiers to handle temperature extremes and support smooth rod reaction.
  • Improved performance: a nitrogen gas charge is designed to maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade.

Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee. Sold individually; replacing both front shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which vehicles does the Monroe 34813 fit?

It's a front shock absorber for the 2003-2010 Dodge Ram 3500 and 2011-2013 RAM 3500. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your exact vehicle.

Is this a front or rear shock?

This is a front shock absorber. It's designed for the front position on the listed applications.

Do I need to replace shocks in pairs?

Shocks are sold individually, so this listing is for one. Replacing both sides of an axle together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced, even ride control.

What makes the Gas-Magnum different from a standard shock?

It uses a larger bore and a 2-in. reserve tube to hold more oil than standard 1-in. bore shocks, plus a nitrogen gas charge that helps reduce aeration and shock fade.

What are signs my shock may need replacing?

Common signs include excessive bouncing, nose-diving under braking, uneven or cupped tire wear, and a rougher, less-controlled ride. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
