KYB MonoMax Rear Shock for Lifted GM Trucks

The KYB MonoMax 565074 is a heavy-duty rear suspension shock absorber built for lifted GM trucks and SUVs that carry extra weight, tow, or see off-road use. Its monotube design is tuned for added control and stable damping on vehicles like the Chevrolet Tahoe, GMC Yukon, and Cadillac Escalade.

MonoMax Product Line Details

KYB MonoMax shocks are part of KYB’s truck-focused performance line. This series is built around a large-bore monotube design that responds to changing road conditions with consistent damping, making it a practical upgrade for lifted rear suspension setups on full-size GM applications.

Key Features

  • Heavy-duty monotube construction for improved handling and control
  • Up to 40% more damping performance than standard shock absorbers
  • Zinc-coated stainless steel piston ring for sealing in demanding conditions
  • Rubber dust boot helps keep dirt and debris away from the shaft and seals
  • Engineered to work with vehicles equipped with electronic safety systems such as ESC and ABS
  • Rear lift replacement shock for 1-3 inch lifted applications

Detailed Description

KYB MonoMax part number 565074 is designed for rear suspension use on lifted GM trucks and SUVs that need firmer control than a standard replacement shock can provide. The large-bore monotube design supports fade-resistant performance, while the work-ready piston ring and dust boot help the shock hold up in harsh road, towing, and off-road conditions. This part number 565074 is a direct fit for rear lift replacement applications on 1988-1999 Chevrolet K1500, K2500, and K3500; 1988-1999 GMC K1500, K2500, and K3500; 1992-1994 Chevrolet Blazer; 1995-1999 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon; and 1999-2000 Cadillac Escalade. It also fits 2000 Chevrolet Tahoe, rear, old style, for 1-3 inch lift setups. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Excess rear bounce on lifted Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon applications
  • Reduced stability when towing or hauling with a lifted GM truck
  • Shock fade during repeated load changes or rough-road driving
  • Loose rear suspension feel on full-size 4x4 trucks and SUVs
  • Wear from dirt, debris, and harsh operating conditions

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear fitment, lift height, and mount style before installation. KYB 565074 uses an E2 lower mount and E3 upper mount, with a compressed length of 16.73 inches, extended length of 26.38 inches, and 9.65 inches of stroke. Confirm that the vehicle is set up for a 1-3 inch lift replacement shock and that the application matches the rear position listed for your Chevrolet, GMC, or Cadillac model.

Quality Assurance

KYB builds the MonoMax line for truck-duty durability, with a zinc-coated steel piston ring and monotube construction intended to maintain consistent damping under demanding use. The design is suited for lifted GM truck and SUV applications where control, load stability, and long-term suspension performance matter.
