KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:345070
KYB 555060 rear shock absorber for the 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra controls suspension movement with separate oil and gas chambers. This KYB shock absorber is a Gas-a-Just monotube with up to 25% more damping than original equipment shocks.
Signs of a worn shock absorber can include fluid leaking from the body, a bouncy ride or nose-dive under braking. Before you replace the shock absorber, rule out other suspension parts that can produce similar signs, such as worn mounts or bushings. The 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra takes two; this listing is one rear shock absorber, so order two and fit them together.
It fits the 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra, with components and valving designed specifically for it.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
Is the KYB 555060 rear shock absorber right for the 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra?
Yes. KYB 555060 is a rear shock absorber for the 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra, and its components and valving are designed specifically for that vehicle.
Is fluid leaking a sign this KYB rear shock absorber has failed?
Yes, fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure. An oily film on the shock body can point to it, and a shop can inspect the shock to confirm.
Is this KYB absorber a monotube or a twin-tube design?
It is a monotube. The high-pressure design separates the gas and oil, so it never experiences fade due to aeration.
Does this KYB gas shock absorber use nitrogen?
Yes. KYB 555060 has a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston, which gives a comfortable ride in normal driving and adds instant performance on demand.
Does this shock absorber suit vehicles that tow or run larger tires?
Yes. Gas-a-Just monotubes include added damping for vehicles that work, tow, and have larger, heavier tires and wheels.
