Firm up a hardworking truck or van's ride and keep the front tires planted with the Monroe Gas-Magnum Front Suspension Shock Absorber 34817. Engineered for midsize and full-size trucks and vans, this gas-charged front shock delivers controlled ride and handling without a harsh feel, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications — including the 1975-1986 Chevrolet C10, 1969-1974 Chevrolet Blazer, 1975-1982 Chevrolet K5 Blazer, 1979-1986 GMC C1500 and 1970-1982 GMC Jimmy. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 74 applications.
Designed for trucks and vans: full-displaced valving on the compression cycle helps deliver controlled ride and handling under load.
Built to last: heavy-duty nitrocarburized rod (non-dust-shield units only) and sintered iron piston enhance durability, while a self-lubricating fluid seal reduces friction against the piston rod to limit wear.
More capacity: a larger bore and bigger 2-in. reserve tube hold more oil — up to twice the fluid of standard 1-in. bore shocks — so the shock works efficiently for a controlled ride and longer service life.
Nitrogen gas-charge: maintains tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade, and OE all-weather fluid handles extreme temperatures for smooth rod reaction.
Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee. If a worn front shock is the cause of a bouncy, poorly controlled ride, this replaces it.
It dampens suspension oscillation to help keep the front tires in contact with the road for controlled ride and handling. This is a front-position shock for the listed trucks and vans.
Is the 34817 a front or rear shock?
It is cataloged as a front suspension shock absorber for the listed applications.
Does it fit my vehicle?
It fits many 1963-1991 Chevrolet and GMC trucks, vans and Suburbans, such as the 1975-1986 Chevrolet C10 and 1970-1982 GMC Jimmy. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for the full 74-application list.
What makes the Gas-Magnum different?
A larger bore and 2-in. reserve tube hold more oil, and a nitrogen gas-charge reduces aeration and shock fade to help maintain tire-to-road contact for firm control without a harsh ride.
What are signs this shock may need replacing?
Excessive bouncing, poor ride control or reduced handling can be signs a shock is worn. Diagnose the cause first, and replace front shocks in pairs for balanced ride control.
