Description


High Pressure Monotube Gas Shock

The KYB Gas-a-just monotube shock absorber has additional performance advantages over the traditional twin-tube design: It can instantly, automatically adjust to your performance needs and never experiences fade due to aeration. The KYB Gas-a-just has two separate working chambers: An air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, and a second high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston that provides a comfortable ride during normal driving and adds instant performance on demand.

Customer Questions
Is It OK To Drive With Bad Struts?
Driving with bad struts is unsafe. Car bounces while driving. Replace them immediately. Shop struts on PartsHawk.com.
How Can I Tell If My Struts Need To Be Replaced?
If your car bounces excessively, experiences poor handling, or has uneven tire wear, you may have bad struts. Check for signs of bad struts like nose dive during braking. Shop for replacement shocks and struts on PartsHawk.com.
What Do Your Struts Do?
Car struts are essential for smooth driving. They support the weight of the vehicle, dampen shocks, and provide stability. Replace worn out struts on a car with quality products from PartsHawk.com.
What Do Your Shocks Do?
Car shocks absorb impact from bumps and uneven road surfaces, improving ride comfort and handling. It's recommended to replace shocks every 50,000 miles for optimal performance. Shop shocks for your car at PartsHawk.com.
