Control impact-related noise, vibration, and harshness on hardworking commercial trucks with the Monroe Magnum Suspension Shock Absorber 65161. This nitrogen gas-charged, large-bore shock is designed for the front and rear positions on class 6-8 vehicles running air spring and taper leaf suspensions. It fits a broad range of medium- and heavy-duty applications, including the 2003-2009 Chevrolet C4500 Kodiak, 1997-2009 Chevrolet C6500 Kodiak, 2003-2009 GMC C4500 Topkick, 1990-2009 Isuzu FTR, 2000-2011 Isuzu FVR, 1995-2008 Kenworth T300, and 2001-2003 Peterbilt 270 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Heavy-duty gas charge: The nitrogen gas charge delivers the fast response needed for today's heavy-duty truck suspensions and helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade.
  • Tuned damping: 10-stage valving is tuned to each vehicle, and a larger 1-3/4-in. bore provides more efficient damping control for a consistent, smooth ride (most applications).
  • Consistent ride: All-weather fluid contains additives to help with extreme temperatures and reduce oil breakdown, while a larger 2-3/8-in. reserve tube holds more fluid (most applications).
  • Built to last: Shouldered and bonded bushing with sleeve protects from bushing walkout, with arc welds up to 360° for durability.

Backed by Monroe's 90-day Risk Free Ride Offer and Limited Commercial Warranty.
