Product Details

The KYB Gas-a-Just KG5493 is a high-performance monotube gas shock absorber engineered to deliver superior handling and ride quality compared to traditional twin-tube designs. This shock absorber automatically adjusts to changing road conditions and driving demands, providing consistent performance without fade.

Advanced Monotube Design Features:

  • Dual-Chamber Construction: Separates hydraulic fluid from high-pressure nitrogen gas using a floating piston to eliminate aeration and ensure fade-free performance
  • Air-Free Hydraulic Chamber: Dedicated piston and valve area provides precise damping control and instant responsiveness
  • High-Pressure Nitrogen Gas Chamber: Maintains consistent pressure across the full range of shock travel for reliable performance
  • Instant Performance Response: Automatically adapts from comfortable daily driving to aggressive handling demands without manual adjustment
  • Fade-Resistant Operation: Monotube design prevents fluid aeration that causes performance degradation in twin-tube shocks

The KYB Gas-a-Just KG5493 delivers OE-quality engineering with enhanced performance characteristics, making it an ideal choice for drivers seeking improved handling, reduced body roll, and consistent damping performance under all driving conditions.

Experience was very good will be buying from here again

Order 11001 was placed on Thurday and was shipped out on Monday. The item was cheaper than anywhere else on the web. I look forward to getting my new side steps. Thanks Autoplicity.

Great Price and Fast Shipping

Easy ordering and the best price I could find on the internet. However, I wouldn't have found this part by looking on the Autoplicity web site! The only way it showed up was doing a google search for that specific part.

Quick to ship. No complaints here.<br>

Best price available on the web. Fast shipping!
