KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG5439
Restore firm, controlled damping to the front corners with the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber KG4538, a high-pressure monotube gas KYB shock absorber built as a direct-fit front replacement for the 1984-1987 Pontiac Fiero. Its components and valving are designed specifically for the Fiero to restore the vehicle's original ride and handling capabilities.
The higher gas pressure of the Gas-a-just responds quickly to help improve steering response, and it helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed, since those systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires working as the manufacturer intended.

What vehicle does the KYB shock absorber KG4538 fit?

Is this a gas shock absorber?
Yes. This KYB gas shock absorber uses a high-pressure monotube design with a nitrogen gas chamber and a separate air-free hydraulic chamber for responsiveness and control.
How is the Gas-a-just different from the KYB Excel-G shock absorber?
This listing (KG4538) is a high-pressure monotube Gas-a-just that adds up to 25% more damping over OE shocks. If you're comparing it with the KYB Excel-G shock absorber, confirm the correct model for your Fiero.
What position does this shock absorber install in?
The catalog lists this as a front shock absorber for the Pontiac Fiero.
What does the triple chrome-plated piston rod do?
The ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated rod is designed to reduce seal wear. Because fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, this helps protect the seal over time.
