KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG4545
Firm up the front of your Toyota Van with the KYB Gas-a-just High Pressure Monotube Gas Shock Absorber (P/N KG4652A) — a direct-fit front shock for the 1984-1989 Toyota Van and the 1988 Toyota Van Wagon. This KYB shock absorber uses a high-pressure monotube design that separates the nitrogen gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, with valving developed specifically for Toyota Vans.
Monotube 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 for a comfortable ride during normal driving and added performance on demand.
Extra damping: Adds up to 25% more damping performance over original-equipment shocks, with additional damping over the OE design for vans that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
Durable rod: An ultra-smooth triple-chrome-plated piston rod reduces seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
Responsive: The higher gas pressure responds quickly for sharper steering response and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the vehicle manufacturer designed.
Position: FRONT. Sold individually; replacing both fronts together as a pair is recommended for balanced ride control.

What vehicles does the KYB KG4652A shock absorber fit?
It is a front-position direct-fit for the 1984-1989 Toyota Van and the 1988 Toyota Van Wagon. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.
Is this a gas shock absorber?
Yes. This KYB Gas-a-just gas shock absorber uses a high-pressure monotube design that separates the nitrogen gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
How does this KYB gas shock absorber monotube design differ from a twin-tube?
It has two separate chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston/valve area for control and a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston, so it resists fade due to aeration.
Does this shock add more damping than the original?
KYB states it adds up to 25% more damping performance over original-equipment shocks, with extra damping for vans that work, tow, or run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
Do I need to replace both front shocks?
It is sold individually. Replacing both front shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced ride control.
