Product Details

Monroe Gas-Magnum 34814 is a suspension shock absorber designed for front-end control on Ram 3500 trucks. The Gas-Magnum line uses a larger fluid capacity than standard 1-in. bore shocks, which helps the shock work with less effort under load and during repeated suspension movement. That makes this Monroe shock absorber a practical choice for Ram 3500 front suspension service where control and ride consistency matter.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 172286 and 182286 for the same application. It also cross-references KYB 3440019.

What It Helps Address

• Front-end bounce or oscillation on Ram 3500 trucks
• Reduced damping control over rough pavement
• Excessive nose dive during braking
• Unstable ride feel from worn suspension shocks
• Loss of consistent control under truck-duty use

Installation Notes

Compatible With 2014-2025 Ram 3500, front. Verify upper stem and lower loop-bushing mounting points before installation. Confirm compressed length, extended length, and travel length against the vehicle’s suspension geometry to ensure proper fitment. This Monroe Gas-Magnum Shock Absorber 34814 is a direct front shock application for the listed Ram 3500 model years.

Quality Assurance
