Market analysis

How much does a used Ram 3500 strut cost?

Asking prices for a used Ram 3500 strut are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 5% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $157.

Model year matters too: 2017 units carry the lowest median at $110, while 2025 tops the table at $200. Year-level pages linked in the table above break each one down by grade and variant.

Against comparable vehicles, the Ram 3500 sits 57% below the Mercedes S Class ($350), 58% above the Jeep Compass ($95), and 25% above the Ford Explorer ($120) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.

Buying a used strut: what to check

  1. Buy struts in pairs. Mixing wear levels ruins handling and tire wear.
  2. Check for oil streaks on the strut body, the sign of a blown seal.
  3. Confirm sport vs base suspension. Spring rates and heights differ.
  4. Factor in new mounts and bearings; reusing old ones wastes the labor.
