KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG4529
$60.99

Bring back firm, controlled damping with the KYB shock absorber KG4529, a Gas-a-just high-pressure monotube gas shock that installs at the REAR of the 1977-1982 Porsche 924 and the 1983-1984 Porsche 944. Its components and valving are designed specifically for these applications to help restore the vehicle's original capabilities.

  • Monotube gas design: two separate working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston that provides a comfortable ride during normal driving and adds performance on demand.
  • Up to 25% more damping: adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, with additional damping over OE design for vehicles that work, tow, or run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
  • Fade-free operation: the high-pressure monotube design separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
  • Reduced seal wear: since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, an ultra-smooth triple chrome plated piston rod is used to reduce seal wear.

The higher gas pressure of this KYB gas shock absorber responds quickly to help improve steering response, and it helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed. Sold individually — replace both rear shocks together as a matched pair for balanced handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does this KYB shock absorber fit?

It fits the REAR position on the 1977-1982 Porsche 924 and the 1983-1984 Porsche 944. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your vehicle.

Is KG4529 a gas shock?

Yes. It's a KYB gas shock absorber — a Gas-a-just high-pressure monotube design that separates the gas and oil using a floating piston for fade-free operation and instant response.

Should I replace both rear shocks at the same time?

This listing is for one shock, sold individually. Replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced handling.

What does the triple chrome plated piston rod do?

Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure. The ultra-smooth triple chrome plated piston rod is designed to reduce seal wear on the KYB Gas-a-just.

How much more damping does this shock provide?

KYB states the Gas-a-just adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, with additional damping for vehicles that work, tow, or use larger, heavier tires and wheels.
