Take on tough terrain with the KYB shock absorber — the MonoMax P/N 565055, a heavy-duty front monotube gas shock that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler. This high-pressure monotube gas shock is built for vehicles that do real work, go off-road, tow a trailer or haul heavy loads.

  • Large-bore monotube design: provides the additional stability that heavier, more powerful or high-center-of-gravity vehicles demand, with fade-free performance.
  • Rubber boot: protects the shaft and helps keep dirt and debris away from the seals.
  • Zinc-coated piston ring: designed to provide a positive seal in the most extreme conditions.
  • Upgrade-level damping: up to 40% more damping performance than standard shock absorbers, and engineered to help vehicles with electronic safety systems (ESC, ABS, etc.).

A shock absorber damps spring and suspension motion to help keep the tires in contact with the road. Signs this front shock may need replacing include excessive bounce, nose dive under braking, a wandering or floaty ride, or fluid leaking down the body. Sold individually; replacing both front shocks together as a matched pair is recommended.
