Tame the bounce and keep your truck planted with the Monroe Gas-Magnum 34817 Front Suspension Shock Absorber. Engineered for hardworking full-size and midsize trucks and vans, it drops in up front on a huge range of classic GM haulers — including the 1975-1986 Chevrolet C10, 1963-1974 Chevrolet C10 Pickup, 1967-1986 Chevrolet C10 Suburban, 1969-1974 Chevrolet Blazer, 1975-1982 Chevrolet K5 Blazer, 1979-1986 GMC C1500, 1970-1982 GMC Jimmy, and many more (see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list).

  • Firm control, no harsh ride: full-displaced valving on the compression cycle delivers controlled ride and handling, with up to twice the fluid capacity of standard 1-in. bore shocks so it works more efficiently with less effort.
  • 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.
  • Consistent ride: OE all-weather fluid with special modifiers handles temperature extremes and helps smooth rod reaction.
  • Improved grip: a nitrogen gas-charge helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade, and a larger bore with a bigger 2-in. reserve tube holds more oil for longer service life.

Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and exclusive Feel the Difference Guarantee.
