Monroe Shock Absorber Gas Magnum (MPN: 74006)

Enhance ride quality and control with advanced shock technology.

The Monroe Shock Absorber Gas Magnum is designed to provide superior control and comfort for various school bus models, including Gillig and Thomas. This nitrogen gas-charged shock absorber features improved valving for both compression and extension cycles, ensuring a smooth ride while maintaining optimal tire-to-road contact. Its robust construction includes a sintered iron piston, which offers enhanced durability compared to traditional metals, contributing to a longer service life.

Engineered for efficiency, the Gas Magnum shock absorbers operate with less effort and feature a fluid capacity that is up to twice that of standard 1 inch bore shocks. The all-weather fluid is formulated with special modifiers to minimize friction, promoting smooth rod reaction in diverse conditions. Additionally, the self-lubricating fluid seal is designed to retain gas effectively, reducing wear and friction over time.

This single shock absorber is semi-universal, making it suitable for a range of applications, and is characterized by its eyelet mounting style at both the upper and lower ends. With a striking yellow body and a 5/8 inch rod diameter, the Monroe Gas Magnum combines functionality with a distinctive appearance, ensuring that it meets the demands of heavy-duty use in school buses.
