Product Details

The KYB KG5471 Gas-a-Just is a high-pressure monotube gas shock absorber engineered to deliver superior handling, fade-free performance, and instant responsiveness over traditional twin-tube designs. Available as a direct OEM replacement for vehicles originally equipped with monotube shocks, or as a meaningful performance upgrade for those with factory twin-tube setups.

At the heart of the Gas-a-Just is a dual-chamber monotube design that keeps gas and oil completely separated. The first chamber houses an air-free hydraulic piston and valve assembly for precise, responsive damping control. The second chamber contains a high-pressure nitrogen gas charge with a floating piston that automatically adapts to changing road conditions — providing a comfortable ride under normal driving and delivering instant added performance on demand.

Key Features:

  • High-pressure monotube design provides up to 25% more damping compared to OE twin-tube shocks for increased handling and vehicle stability
  • Separated gas and oil chambers eliminate aeration and shock fade — even during aggressive driving or off-road use
  • Self-adjusting, velocity-sensitive valving automatically responds to driving conditions without driver input
  • Triple chrome-plated piston rod reduces seal wear and extends service life
  • Multi-lip synthetic oil seal retains fluid and features an integrated wiper to block contaminants
  • Seamless steel cylinder construction with bonded bushings resists splitting and eliminates noise
  • Internal top-out bump stop protects internal components during full extension
  • Wear-resistant piston ring ensures consistent damping performance over time
  • All-weather hydraulic fluid maintains near-constant viscosity across a wide temperature range
  • Suitable for cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs

The KYB Gas-a-Just KG5471 is backed by KYB's lifetime warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, making it a reliable long-term investment in suspension performance and safety.

Cheapest priced ARP head studs on the internet. A++ I will definitely do more business with Autoplicity.

The prices were so much better with Autoplicity I couldn't believe it was the same item. E-mail response came within an hours. Will buy from again.<br><br>Ok, the verdict's still out on this one. Autoplicity said my item was shipped two days ago (two days after ordered), but FEDEX indicates they've only received "shipment information", after four days. I'll follow up when I actually see the order.

Processed and shipped fast. I was a little upset with them shipping my Eibach springs in the Eibach box, and not repackaging it. Everyone could see the box, and knew what was in it. But this will not stop me from ordering again.

The correct product that I ordered, and easy to find through there web site.thanks
