KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:3440112
Help sharpen steering response and keep body motion under control with the KYB Gas-a-just Front Shock Absorber (MPN 5550018), a high-pressure monotube gas shock. It installs in the front position of the 2007-2017 Jeep Wrangler and the 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK, so if you're shopping for a front suspension shock absorber for either, this unit drops right in.
The Gas-a-just monotube 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 that provides a comfortable ride during normal driving and adds performance on demand. Because the design separates the gas and oil, it resists fade for consistent response.
