Help keep your Jeep planted and responsive with the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber (MPN 5550016), a high-pressure monotube gas unit that installs as a FRONT direct-fit replacement for the 2020-2023 Jeep Gladiator and the 2018-2023 Jeep Wrangler. If you need a suspension shock absorber designed for vehicles that work and tow, this monotube-designed OEM replacement is built to help restore the designed control and handling of your 2020-2023 Jeep Gladiator or 2018-2023 Jeep Wrangler.

  • Monotube gas design: Two separate working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston/valve area for responsiveness and control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen chamber with a floating piston that separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
  • Higher gas pressure: Designed to react quickly and improve steering response, without the aeration fade of a traditional twin-tube shock.
  • Built to work: Gas-a-just monotubes are designed for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels, and help keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed.
  • Durable piston rod: An ultra-smooth triple chrome plated piston rod reduces seal wear; since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, this helps protect against it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does this KYB shock absorber fit?

It's a FRONT direct-fit replacement for the 2020-2023 Jeep Gladiator and the 2018-2023 Jeep Wrangler. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact configuration.

How is a monotube shock different from a twin-tube?

The Gas-a-just monotube uses separate chambers for oil and high-pressure nitrogen gas, so it resists aeration fade and responds instantly, unlike a traditional twin-tube design.

Is this shock absorber a good choice for towing?

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

Will this affect my Jeep's safety systems?

Electronic safety systems depend on the suspension working as designed; the KYB Gas-a-just helps keep those Electronic Safety Systems performing as intended.

Should I replace shocks in pairs?

This listing is for one shock, sold individually. Replacing shocks as an axle pair is recommended for balanced, even ride control.
