Keep every heavy-duty mile controlled with the Monroe Magnum Front Suspension Shock Absorber 65164 — a gas-charged, large-bore damper built for the front suspension of hardworking commercial trucks. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2008-2010 Dodge Ram 4500 and Ram 5500, the 2011-2025 Ram 4500 and Ram 5500, and the 2008-2010 Sterling Truck Bullet 45 and Bullet 55 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application list). As a gas-charged, large-bore shock for air spring and taper leaf suspensions, its nitrogen gas charge provides the fast response heavy-duty truck suspensions demand.

  • Consistent ride: All-weather fluid with special additives helps handle extreme temperatures and reduce oil breakdown, while a larger 2-3/8-in. reserve tube holds more fluid (most applications).
  • Tuned damping: 10-Stage valving tuned to the vehicle plus a larger 1-3/4-in. bore for more efficient damping control (most applications).
  • Strong and durable: Shouldered and bonded bushing with sleeve helps protect against bushing walkout, with arc welds up to 360°.
  • Longer service life: PTFE-coated bearing reduces friction between rod and rod guide, combined with a nitrocarburized piston rod (most applications).

The nitrogen gas charge helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade. Backed by Monroe's 90-day Risk Free Ride Offer and Limited Commercial Warranty.
