Firm up the ride and control on your classic Ford with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber KG4511, a high-pressure monotube gas shock that installs as a direct-fit FRONT replacement for the 1974-1978 Ford Mustang II, 1971-1980 Ford Pinto, and 1975-1980 Mercury Bobcat. Its components and valving are designed specifically for classic Ford cars.

  • Monotube gas design: The high-pressure monotube layout separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, avoiding the aeration fade of a traditional twin-tube shock.
  • Two working chambers: An air-free hydraulic piston and valve area handles responsiveness and control, while a separate high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston is designed for a comfortable ride during normal driving with added performance on demand.
  • Triple chrome-plated piston rod: Since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, the ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated rod is built to reduce seal wear.
  • Higher gas pressure: Responds quickly to help improve steering response, adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, and helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed.

Shocks wear as a set, so replacing both sides together is recommended for balanced control; this listing is for one shock.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the KYB KG4511 fit?

It is a direct-fit FRONT shock for the 1974-1978 Ford Mustang II, 1971-1980 Ford Pinto, and 1975-1980 Mercury Bobcat. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.

What position is this shock for?

This is a FRONT suspension shock absorber. Its components and valving are designed specifically for these classic Ford cars.

How is a monotube gas shock different from a twin-tube?

The high-pressure monotube design separates the gas and oil, which is intended to give fade-free operation and instant response instead of the aeration fade a traditional twin-tube can experience.

Why does it have a triple chrome-plated piston rod?

Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, so the ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated rod is built to reduce seal wear.

Should I replace shocks in pairs?

Shocks wear over time, so replacing both sides on the same axle together is recommended for balanced, even control. This listing is for one shock.
