KYB 555057 rear shock absorber for the 2005-2012 Nissan Pathfinder damps rear suspension movement with a separate high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber. As a KYB shock absorber in the Gas-a-Just line, it adds up to 25% more damping performance than original equipment shocks.
- Gas-a-Just monotube with an air-free hydraulic valve area and a separate high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber
- High pressure monotube design separates gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response
- Triple chrome plated piston rod to reduce seal wear
- Higher gas pressure responds quickly to improve steering response
- Helps electronic safety systems perform as the vehicle maker designed them
Quick facts
- Part: KYB 555057 shock absorber
- Also called: high pressure monotube gas shock
- Fits: 2005-2012 Nissan Pathfinder
- Position: Rear
Fluid on the shock body, a bouncy ride over bumps or a loose feel at the rear can mean a shock is worn, though tired rear springs or worn tires can be behind the same complaints.
Fits
This rear shock absorber is a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2012 Nissan Pathfinder. Its components and valving are designed specifically for this model, with extra damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow or run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the KYB rear shock absorber 555057 right for the 2005-2012 Nissan Pathfinder?
Yes. KYB 555057 is a rear shock absorber made for the 2005-2012 Nissan Pathfinder, with components and valving designed specifically for that model.
What does the gas charge do in this KYB gas shock absorber?
A second chamber holds high-pressure nitrogen behind a floating piston, which gives a comfortable ride in normal driving and adds response on demand. Gas and oil stay separate for fade-free operation.
Is the piston rod on this KYB absorber chrome plated?
Yes. The piston rod on KYB 555057 is triple chrome plated and ultra-smooth to reduce seal wear, since leaking fluid can be a cause of shock failure.
Does this rear shock add damping for towing or heavy wheels?
Yes. Gas-a-Just monotubes add damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow, or run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
Does KYB 555057 cross-reference to 56200EA525?
Yes. 56200EA525 is listed as an interchange number for KYB 555057.
