KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:SA1016
Bring controlled, confident damping back to the rear of your Porsche with the KYB shock absorber KG4544, a high-pressure monotube gas unit from KYB's Gas-a-just line. It installs at the rear position as an OE monotube replacement for the 1987-1988 Porsche 924 and the 1985-1991 Porsche 944, helping restore your vehicle's original ride and control characteristics.
The higher gas pressure of this KYB gas shock absorber is designed to respond quickly and improve steering response, and it helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the manufacturer intended, since those systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires working together.

What vehicles does the KYB shock absorber KG4544 fit?
It is a rear shock absorber for the 1987-1988 Porsche 924 and the 1985-1991 Porsche 944. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your exact vehicle.
Is the KG4544 a gas shock absorber?
Yes. This KYB gas shock absorber uses a high-pressure monotube design with a nitrogen gas chamber and a floating piston, separating gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
What is the Gas-a-just twin-chamber design?
It combines an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control with a separate high-pressure nitrogen gas area and floating piston that supports a comfortable ride and adds performance on demand.
How much extra damping does this shock provide?
KYB rates the Gas-a-just to add up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, with additional damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow, or run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
Is the KG4544 sold individually?
This listing is for one rear shock. For even, balanced handling it is best practice to replace both rear shocks together as a matched pair. Pricing is shown on this product page.
