Monroe Shocks & Struts Magnum 74423 Shock Absorber

Tough Monroe Magnum shock absorbers for transit buses deliver a firm, controlled ride for greater stability and increased driver comfort. Designed to meet or exceed demanding OE manufacturer specifications

• Robust hydraulic lock-out: Prevents over-extension of the suspension, top-out of the piston and averts damage to the seal assembly
• PTFE coated bearing: Reduces friction during operation between the rod and rod guide, improving durability
• Tenneco shouldered bushings: Shouldered bushing and bonded bushing with sleeve designs prevent (bushing walkout) for improved quality and durability - on most applications
• Loop welding technique: Resistance weld with additional 36-degree weld to provide up to 15, lbs. (6,84 kg) tensile strength for maximum durability - when required
• 1-3/4-inch (44.6 mm) Bore: Larger bore gives accessibility to finer tune the valving by allowing more hydraulic fluid to dissipate heat for better vehicle control
• 2-3/4-inch (69.85 mm) Reserve Tube: More fluid for more consistent performance - when required
• 23/32-inch (18 mm) diameter piston rod: Nitrocarburized design more environmentally friendly, maintaining chrome structural benefits, without effecting durability or use life of the rod. Sintered iron design allows for more precise piston dimensions, requiring no additional components for exceptional fit
• .5-inch Pressure tube withstanding pressure of 9KPSI
• All weather fluid: Contains special modifiers to reduce frictions and ensure smooth rod reaction
• 1-stage valving: Reacts to wide range of driving conditions - on most applications
