This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What position does the 34853 shock fit?
The catalog lists it for both the front and rear position on the covered applications. Confirm which axle you're servicing and replace the shocks on that axle together.
Which vehicles does this shock fit?
A range of Dodge trucks and vans plus the Plymouth Trailduster, such as the 1974-1993 Ramcharger, 1977-1993 W150 and 1981-1993 W250. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Is the Gas-Magnum 34853 gas-charged?
Yes. It uses a nitrogen gas charge to help maintain tire-to-road contact and reduce aeration and shock fade for improved ride and handling.
Should I replace both shocks at once?
Best practice is to replace the shocks on the same axle as a matched pair for balanced, even control. This listing is for one shock.
What makes the Gas-Magnum design different?
A larger bore and 2-in. reserve tube hold more oil — up to twice the fluid of standard 1-in. bore shocks — for firm control without a harsh ride.
