KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:3440137
Smooth out the ride and keep your loaded truck planted with the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber (P/N 5540027), a high-pressure monotube gas KYB shock absorber built for the rear of the 2017-2024 Ford F-250 Super Duty and 2017-2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty. This monotube-designed OEM replacement is engineered for trucks that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
Unlike a traditional twin-tube shock, the Gas-a-just uses two separate working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston for comfortable everyday driving and instant response on demand.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
Is this a KYB gas shock absorber or a twin-tube design?
It is a KYB Gas-a-just high-pressure monotube gas shock. Its monotube construction separates the gas and oil, which is different from a traditional twin-tube shock.
What vehicles does the KYB 5540027 fit?
It is a rear shock for the 2017-2024 Ford F-250 Super Duty and 2017-2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm engine-level fitment for your truck.
Does this shock fit the front or rear?
This is a rear-position shock absorber for the listed Super Duty applications.
Why choose a monotube shock for a truck that tows?
The Gas-a-just is designed for vehicles that work, tow, and carry larger, heavier tires and wheels, with fade-free operation and instant response under load.
Should I replace both rear shocks at the same time?
Shocks are typically replaced as a pair so both sides wear and respond evenly. This listing is for one shock; order the quantity your job requires.
