Product Details

Monroe Gas-Magnum shocks are engineered to move more fluid than a standard 1-inch bore design, which helps the shock absorber work with less effort under load. That makes the Monroe 34526 a strong fit for rear suspension service where control, stability, and consistent damping matter. This part cross-references Rancho RS55254 and KYB 345070 for the same application.

Fits 2005-2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty, rear. Fits 2008-2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty, rear. Fits 2005-2007 Ford F-350 Super Duty, rear, with Dual Rear Wheels (DRW).

Common Problems This Part Addresses

• Excessive rear-end bounce over bumps and uneven pavement
• Reduced control when carrying loads or towing
• Rear suspension instability during braking or lane changes
• Worn shock performance that leads to poor ride control
• Need for a direct-fit rear shock absorber on Ford Super Duty trucks

Installation Notes

Verify upper and lower mount style before installation: upper loop bushing mount with 5/8 in. bushing ID and 1.5/16 in. bushing OAL, and lower loop bushing and sleeve mount with 1/2 in. sleeve ID and 1.1/2 in. sleeve OAL. Confirm compressed and extended length requirements against the vehicle’s rear suspension geometry before final assembly. This Monroe 34526 shock absorber is listed for rear position only.

Quality Assurance

Monroe Gas-Magnum shock absorbers are built for truck and van suspension service with increased fluid capacity for more efficient operation. The Monroe 34526 is listed with a limited lifetime warranty on applicable Ford F-250 Super Duty and Ford F-350 Super Duty fitments.
