Damp road impacts and help keep the tires in contact with the road on hardworking class 6-8 trucks with the Monroe Magnum Front Suspension Shock Absorber 65148. This front-position, gas-charged shock installs as a direct-fit replacement across a wide commercial lineup, including the 2012-2024 Freightliner 108SD and 114SD, 2008-2020 Freightliner Cascadia, 2003-2024 Freightliner M2 112, 1995-2023 Thomas Saf-T-Liner and 2008-2020 Western Star 4900EX — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full 27-application list.

  • Gas-charged design: A nitrogen gas charge helps provide the fast response used by air spring and taper leaf heavy-duty suspensions while reducing aeration and shock fade.
  • Built for severe use: Designed to handle the demands of high-mileage, severe-use class 6-8 trucks and buses.
  • Consistent damping: 10-stage valving tuned to each vehicle and a larger 1-3/4-in. bore provide efficient damping control on most applications; all-weather fluid plus a larger 2-3/8-in. reserve tube help with temperature extremes and reduce oil breakdown.
  • Strong and durable: Shouldered and bonded bushing with sleeve protects against bushing walkout, with arc welds up to 360°; a PTFE-coated bearing and nitrocarburized piston rod reduce rod friction for longer service life on most applications.

Backed by Monroe's 90-day Risk Free Ride Offer and Limited Commercial Warranty. Worn shocks may show up as reduced ride control, excessive body motion, or impact noise; if a failed front shock is the cause, this replaces it. Sold individually — replacing shocks in axle pairs is recommended for balanced control.
