KYB 555050 rear shock absorber for the 2006-2010 Hummer H3 is a high pressure monotube gas shock that damps rear wheel movement. Sold under the Gas-a-just name, this KYB shock absorber is designed for vehicles that work, tow and carry larger, heavier tires and wheels.
- KYB Gas-a-just monotube with an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area and a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston
- Gas-a-just helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed
- High pressure monotube design separates the gas and oil for fade free operation and instant response
- Ultra-smooth triple chrome plated piston rod to reduce seal wear
- Higher gas pressure that responds quickly to improve steering response
Quick facts
- Part: KYB 555050 shock absorber
- Also called: high pressure monotube gas shock
- Fits: 2006-2010 Hummer H3
- Position: Rear
- Condition: New
A rear end that bounces after bumps, a rough ride or oily fluid on a shock body can mean a shock is worn, though tires, springs and bushings can cause similar signs. With the engine off, look the shock body over for an oily film, and find the cause before you replace it.
Fits
As an OE monotube replacement, it helps restore the designed control and handling of the 2006-2010 Hummer H3, which takes two, one on each side of the rear axle. The other shock on that axle is normally replaced at the same time.
