Need 2015 Ram 1500 shocks or struts? This page is catalog-backed ride control for the DS Ram 1500 (2013–2018), including 2015. It is not Ram 2500/3500, not the 2019+ DT, and it is not a van, Rebel, or TRX.
KYB Excel-G / Gas-a-Just / MonoMax and Gabriel Ultra / Guardian / HiJackers numbers below come from the U.S. KYB shocks & struts catalog and Gabriel 2018 application guide. Do not mix KYB Europe SKUs onto these rows. 2WD vs 4WD (and air vs coil on some trucks) still change the corner.

DS Ram 1500 (2013–2018) shock shop notes — 2015
These are ride-control shop notes for the DS Ram 1500 that includes 2015. Numbers come from the KYB U.S. shocks/struts book and the Gabriel 2018 application guide we host under Catalogs — not from torque charts, and not from the KYB Europe PDF.
What usually brings people here
- Nose dive, hollow ride, or a wet shock body → front damper worn out. Start with the Front list on this page and match 2WD/4WD (and air vs coil on Rams) before you order.
- Rear sag under tow, cargo squat, or a floaty highway feel → rear shocks first. If Gabriel lists a HiJackers air shock for this truck, that is the load-assist path — not a substitute for broken leaf springs.
- Clunk that is not a ball joint or sway link → check upper strut mounts / bearing plates when the catalog lists them beside the strut row.
KYB vs Gabriel — how we pick a line
KYB Excel-G 349110 is the OE-style twin-tube daily driver; Gas-a-Just 554375 is the firmer high-pressure monotube when both appear for the same corner — pick one philosophy, don’t mix left/right. Gabriel Ultra G51856 is the main Gabriel damper line on this page.
While you’re in there
Replace dampers in axle pairs. Inspect bump stops and dust boots while the corner is apart. If the truck also clunks or wanders, see 2015 Ram 1500 suspension parts. If brakes are next, see 2015 Ram 1500 brake parts.
Shop notes only — not a service manual. Use the factory procedure or a Haynes/Chilton manual for wrench work, torque, and safety steps. Leave a comment with 2WD/4WD (and air vs coil if equipped) plus the symptom if you want a part-number check.

Fitment notes
These KYB and Gabriel numbers come from the U.S. KYB shocks & struts catalog and the Gabriel 2018 application guide (plus Gabriel HD only when a 1500 row appears). Year ranges in those books that cover 2015 are expanded onto this page. Mount/boot kits are omitted unless they rode beside a damper row we kept. Do not use KYB Europe application SKUs here. Gabriel’s 2018 guide and the KYB U.S. book print DS Ram 1500 damper rows through the early/mid teens; for 2015 we surface the latest DS-platform Ultra / Excel-G / Gas-a-Just / MonoMax rows with the printed catalog year range noted on each line — confirm Amazon fitment for 2015 before ordering. Skip 2500/3500, Mega Cab-only, SRT-10, Power Wagon, Rebel/TRX, and van rows. Air-suspension trucks still use passive aftermarket dampers only where the catalog does not send you to electronic/air OEM units.
