Overview:

The KYB MonoMax Shocks 565015 are engineered specifically for Dodge Ram trucks, including the 1500, 2500, and 3500 models from the mid-1990s to early 2000s. These heavy-duty monotube shocks are designed to provide superior stability, control, and durability for trucks and SUVs that face demanding driving conditions. Whether you are towing heavy loads, hauling cargo, or navigating rough off-road terrain, the MonoMax shocks deliver consistent, fade-free performance to keep your vehicle stable and responsive.

Built to handle the higher center of gravity typical of trucks, these shocks enhance handling and steering response, restoring your vehicle’s original driving dynamics. The KYB MonoMax is an ideal upgrade for Ram owners seeking improved ride quality and confidence on and off the road.

Key Features:

KYB MonoMax Shocks 565015 incorporate advanced technology and robust construction to meet the rigorous demands of truck applications. Key features include:

• Heavy-Duty Monotube Design: Provides enhanced stability and control, especially for vehicles with a higher center of gravity.
• High-Pressure Gas Charge: Separates oil and gas to prevent foaming, ensuring consistent damping performance and reducing shock fade under extreme conditions.
• Work-Ready Piston Ring: Zinc-coated stainless steel piston ring maintains a secure seal to prevent fluid leaks and sustain optimal shock function.
• Triple Chrome-Plated Piston Rod: Ultra-smooth surface reduces seal wear and increases durability for long-lasting performance.
• Robust Dust Boot: Thick rubber boot shields the shock shaft from dirt, rocks, and debris, extending service life.
• Enhanced Damping Power: Offers up to 40% more damping compared to original equipment twin-tube shocks, ideal for trucks with larger tires and wheels.

Construction & Design:

The KYB MonoMax shocks feature a monotube design constructed from high-quality materials engineered for toughness and longevity. The monotube body allows for better heat dissipation, which helps maintain consistent damping performance during heavy use. The piston rod’s triple chrome plating ensures resistance to corrosion and wear, while the zinc-coated stainless steel piston ring provides a reliable seal to prevent fluid leaks. Additionally, the thick rubber dust boot protects internal components from contaminants, reducing maintenance needs and extending the shock’s operational life.

Installation & Fitment:

These shocks are designed as direct replacements for the front suspension of Dodge Ram 1500 models from 1994 to 2001, and Ram 2500 and 3500 models from 1994 to 2002. Installation requires no modifications, fitting the original mounting points precisely for a straightforward swap. This ensures a hassle-free upgrade that restores or improves your truck’s suspension performance without the need for custom adjustments.
