Keep your hardworking Ford truck's rear end planted with the Monroe Gas-Magnum Rear Suspension Shock Absorber 34963. Engineered for full-size trucks and vans, it installs as a rear replacement for the 1985-1996 Ford F-150, 1980-1996 Ford F-250, 1986-1991 Ford F-200, 1996 Ford F-100 Ranger, the 1980-1991 and 2011-2016 Ford F-350, and the 1999-2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
- Designed for trucks and vans: full-displaced valving on the compression cycle for firm, controlled ride and handling without a harsh feel.
- Built to last: a sintered iron piston and self-lubricating fluid seal reduce friction against the piston rod; on non-dust-shield units, a heavy-duty nitrocarburized rod adds durability.
- Consistent ride: OE all-weather fluid with special modifiers handles temperature extremes and smooths rod reaction.
- Nitrogen gas-charged: helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade.
- Larger capacity: a bigger bore and 2-in. reserve tube hold more oil — up to twice the fluid capacity of standard 1-in. bore shocks — for efficient operation and longer service life.
Shocks wear gradually; signs this rear shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing, nose dive, or reduced control over bumps. Sold individually — replace both rear shocks together as a matched pair for balanced ride control. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.
