KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:553379

Smooth out the ride and restore firm handling with the KYB Gas-a-just shock absorber (P/N 553379), a rear high-pressure monotube gas shock that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2014 Mazda 2. This is the correct monotube OE-replacement shock, engineered to restore the designed control and handling of the Mazda 2 while resisting fade during demanding driving.

This KYB gas shock uses a monotube design with two separate working chambers:

• Twin-chamber design: an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston for a comfortable ride during normal driving and added performance on demand.
• Fade-free operation: the high-pressure monotube separates the gas and oil for consistent damping and instant response.
• Triple chrome plated piston rod: since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, the ultra-smooth rod is built to reduce seal wear.
• Quick steering response: the higher gas pressure helps improve steering response and supports the electronic safety systems that depend on suspension, brakes and tires performing as intended.

Gas-a-just monotubes are designed for vehicles that work, tow, and carry larger, heavier tires and wheels.
