KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:3440112
KYB 565069 front shock absorber for the 1987-1991 GMC V3500 and other vehicles damps spring movement on heavier trucks. It is a high pressure monotube gas shock with up to 40% more damping performance than standard shock absorbers.
A bouncy ride, oil on the body or loose handling under load can mean the shock absorber is worn; worn springs or loose bushings can feel similar, so rule those out first. Front shock absorbers are normally replaced as a pair, and this listing is one. The 1987-1991 GMC V3500 takes two.
This shock absorber is listed for a wide range of Chevrolet and GMC truck models, led by the 1987-1991 GMC V3500, the 1989-1991 Chevrolet V3500 and the 1987-1988 Chevrolet V30. Open the Buyer's Guide tab to check your exact model and engine.
