Designed to perform

With a faster valve response and up to 40% more damping compared to typical OE twin-tube designs, KYB MonoMax shocks are engineered to give your truck maximum handling and control.

Monotube
design

High-pressure monotube design keeps the gas and oil inside the shock separate to eliminate the possibility of ‘foaming’ that can cause twin-tube shocks to fade under hard use. The result is fade-free operation and instant response.

Stability

With a faster valve response and additional damping force, KYB MonoMax monotube shocks provide more stability – especially in vehicles with a higher center of gravity.

Are KYB MonoMax Shocks designed for towing?

Tow ready - Towing, hauling heavy loads, and plowing require additional damping and control. KYB Monotube shocks are a great choice if you are using your truck, 4X4, or SUV as a work truck for towing, heavy loads, or plowing.

What makes KYB MonoMax Shocks a good choice for vehicles with tire and wheel upgrades?

Larger, aftermarket wheels can add up to 25 pounds of additional weight to each corner. Original Equipment shocks and struts are calibrated for original tires and wheels, not larger, heavier ones. Compared to typical OE shocks, KYB MonoMax shocks provide additional damping to better control vehicles with larger, heavier tire-and-wheel packages.

Tough conditions demand tough truck shocks.

  • The large bore of KYB MonoMax Shocks provides the additional stability that heavier, more powerful vehicles with a high center of gravity require. 

  • The MonoMax’s floating piston design adjusts to driving conditions automatically. When road conditions cause the shock to travel faster or further, the floating piston design instantly provides greater damping for maximum control. 

  • When road conditions return to normal, the MonoMax delivers excellent ride comfort.

Made for vehicles that do real work

  • Zinc-coated steel piston ring provides long-life reliability.

  • A thick rubber dust boot protects the shaft from debris that can cause premature wear of the oil seal.

  • The multi-lip oil seal features an integrated wiper to keep fluid in and contaminants out.

  • An ultra-smooth, triple chrome-plated piston rod helps reduce seal wear.
