Keep your heavy-duty chassis cab planted and controlled with the Monroe Magnum Front Suspension Shock Absorber 65164, a gas-charged, large-bore damper built for class 6-8 air spring and taper leaf suspensions. It installs on the front of the 2008-2010 Dodge Ram 4500 and 5500, the 2011-2025 Ram 4500 and 5500, and the 2008-2010 Sterling Truck Bullet 45 and 55 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of applications and engine details.

  • Nitrogen gas charge: reduces aeration and shock fade for fast response, helping maintain tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling.
  • 10-stage valving: tuned to the vehicle and paired with a larger 1-3/4-in. bore for more efficient damping control on most applications.
  • All-weather fluid: special additives help handle temperature extremes and reduce oil breakdown, while a larger 2-3/8-in. reserve tube holds more fluid on most applications.
  • Strong and durable: shouldered bushing and bonded bushing with sleeve protect against bushing walkout, with arc welds up to 360° for durability.

A robust hydraulic lock-out helps prevent over-extension and top-out on most applications, while a PTFE-coated bearing and nitrocarburized piston rod are designed for reduced friction and longer service life. Backed by Monroe's 90-day Risk Free Ride Offer and Limited Commercial Warranty.

What vehicles does this shock fit?

The 2008-2010 Dodge Ram 4500 and 5500, the 2011-2025 Ram 4500 and 5500, and the 2008-2010 Sterling Truck Bullet 45 and 55. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

What does the nitrogen gas charge do?

It provides fast response for heavy-duty suspensions and reduces aeration and shock fade, helping maintain tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling.

Should I replace front shocks in pairs?

Replacing both front shocks together as a matched pair is a common best practice for even, balanced ride control, though it is not strictly required.

What are signs a shock may need replacing?

Excessive bouncing, reduced ride control, uneven or accelerated tire wear, and fluid leaking from the shock body can be signs. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
