Rear Shock Absorber for 2002-2007 Buick Rendezvous - KYB KG5045

Help keep firm, controlled damping at the rear axle with the KYB shock absorber KG5045, a high-pressure monotube gas shock that drops in as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 2002-2007 Buick Rendezvous. Also cataloged as part of KYB's Gas-a-just line, its components and valving were designed specifically for the 2002-2007 Buick Rendezvous.

• Monotube gas design: the high-pressure monotube construction separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, unlike a traditional twin-tube shock that can aerate.
• Two working chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area handles responsiveness and control, while a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston supports a comfortable ride and adds damping on demand.
• Triple chrome-plated rod: because fluid leakage can cause shock failure, the ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated piston rod is designed to reduce seal wear.
• Firmer control: higher gas pressure is designed to improve steering response, and the Gas-a-just adds up to 25% more damping over original-equipment shocks — extra control for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

KYB notes that electronic safety systems depend on the suspension, brakes and tires operating as the vehicle manufacturer intended, and the Gas-a-just helps keep those systems performing as designed. Sold individually; replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride control. This is one of KYB's gas shock absorber offerings in the Gas-a-just family.
