Description

Keep your 1996-2005 Toyota RAV4 planted and composed with the KYB shock absorber KG4738, a high-pressure monotube gas unit that installs as a rear replacement for the 1996-2005 Toyota RAV4. As a KYB Gas-a-just monotube, its components and valving were designed specifically for the 1996-2005 Toyota RAV4, giving this KYB gas shock absorber added damping for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

Gas-a-just 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 with instant performance on demand.
Fade-free operation: the high-pressure monotube separates the gas and oil so it won't fade due to aeration, and responds instantly.
Triple chrome-plated piston rod: since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, the ultra-smooth rod is designed to reduce seal wear.
More damping: adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, and its higher gas pressure is designed to improve steering response.

It also helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as the manufacturer intended. Sold individually; for balanced handling, replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended.

How many shocks should I order?

This listing is for one shock, sold individually. For balanced ride and handling, replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended.

What are signs my rear shocks may need replacing?

Common signs include excessive bouncing over bumps, excessive body sway, uneven tire wear, or fluid leaking from the shock body. Diagnose the cause before replacing.

What does the triple chrome-plated piston rod do?

Its ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated surface is designed to reduce seal wear. Because fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, the smoother rod helps protect the seal.
