KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG5782
Tame front-end float and firm up handling with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber KG4730, a high-pressure monotube gas shock that installs as a direct-fit FRONT replacement for the 1994-1996 Jaguar XJ12 and the 1994-1997 Jaguar XJ6. Offered as an OE monotube replacement to help restore your vehicle's original ride and control, it uses two separate working chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston-and-valve area for responsiveness, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston for a comfortable ride during normal driving and added performance on demand.
The higher gas pressure is designed to respond quickly for improved steering response, and KYB notes it helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed. Signs a worn shock may need replacing include excess bounce, nose dive under braking, and fluid seepage.
