Upgrade your ride with the KYB Gas-a-just shock absorber (KYB shock absorber KG4536), a high-pressure monotube gas shock that installs as a rear direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1982-1989 Buick Skyhawk, 1986-1994 Buick Skylark, 1982-1994 Chevrolet Cavalier, 1987-1994 Chevrolet Beretta and Corsica, 1985-1994 Pontiac Grand Am and 1999-2002 Daewoo Lanos — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

The Gas-a-just uses 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 for a comfortable ride during normal driving and added performance on demand.

  • Monotube design: separates gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, and never experiences fade due to aeration.
  • Extra damping: adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, with valving designed specifically for classic GM cars.
  • Triple chrome-plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod reduces seal wear; fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
  • Higher gas pressure: responds quickly to help improve steering response and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed.

To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts, part number SM5010.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the KYB Gas-a-just KG4536 a gas shock absorber?

Yes. It is a high-pressure monotube gas shock (KYB Gas-a-just) that uses a high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber with a floating piston kept separate from the hydraulic oil.

What position does this shock mount in?

KG4536 is a rear shock absorber for the listed applications. Shocks are best replaced as a matched pair, so consider replacing both rear units together.

Which vehicles does KG4536 fit?

How does the monotube design help?

The high-pressure monotube separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, and it will not fade due to aeration, unlike a traditional twin-tube shock.

What interchange numbers does this KYB shock replace?

KG4536 cross-references to interchange numbers 69749 and 5896. Confirm fitment for your specific vehicle before ordering.
