Product Details

The KYB Gas-a-Just KG5508 is a high-pressure monotube shock absorber designed to restore your vehicle's original handling capabilities and performance. This premium shock features advanced monotube technology that provides superior responsiveness and control compared to traditional twin-tube designs.

Advanced Monotube Design Features:

  • Dual-chamber construction with separate hydraulic and gas chambers for optimal performance
  • Air-free hydraulic piston and valve area delivers instant responsiveness and precise control
  • High-pressure nitrogen gas chamber with floating piston separator prevents aeration and fade
  • Monotube construction allows for more efficient heat dissipation during demanding driving conditions
  • Larger diameter piston provides better road contact and improved handling

Performance Benefits:

  • Maintains comfortable ride quality during normal driving conditions
  • Provides instant performance enhancement on demand when cornering or maneuvering
  • Reduces body roll and nosedive for improved vehicle control
  • Consistent damping performance across all temperature ranges
  • Direct OE replacement for easy installation

The Gas-a-Just monotube technology ensures fade-free performance by keeping oil and gas completely separated, eliminating the performance-robbing aeration common in twin-tube shocks. Whether you're looking to restore your vehicle's original handling or enhance everyday driving dynamics, the KYB KG5508 delivers professional-grade performance and reliability.

Fast check out and great prices.

Simple

Great company, quick delivery!!

Everything was good except the delivery. I purchased exhaust pipes. Each were shipped with only cellophane wrapped around the ends. No over pack of any kind witch is fine, Each of the pieces were bent and malformed on the ends. Until I beat on them with a hammer to try to straighten them I could not use them. Some protection could be used, a plastic cap and then cellophane, something

Quick

Great products, and pricing

Awesome pricing. Needed Pertonix setup for my wifes 62 Mercury Monterey Convertible S-55.

I have to say I was skeptical at first because autoplicity's price beat everyone by so much! Then I estimated my shipping charges with their system and that too was real cheap for this heavy item I ordered! I ordered it on Sunday and it showed up on Tuesday afternoon! So exceptional pricing meets exceptional shipping and my item is the real thing for a lot less leaves me completely satisfied with this company! I will be recommending them to my friends and family, thanks!

Great variety of products offered. Quick shipping.

Great service and packaged really nicely!
