KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:SA1016
Firm up a working truck's rear ride with the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber (KG5193), a high-pressure monotube gas shock that installs as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 2004-2008 Ford F-150 and the 2006-2008 Lincoln Mark LT. This KYB shock absorber uses a monotube design with 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 — so it never experiences fade due to aeration.
KYB notes the Gas-a-just also helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed, since those systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires operating as the vehicle manufacturer intended. Sold individually; replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced ride control. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.

What vehicles does the KYB KG5193 shock absorber fit?
It installs as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 2004-2008 Ford F-150 and the 2006-2008 Lincoln Mark LT. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your vehicle.
Is this a monotube or twin-tube design?
It is a high-pressure monotube Gas-a-just design that separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, unlike a traditional twin-tube shock.
How does this KYB gas shock absorber compare to OE shocks?
KYB states the Gas-a-just adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, with components and valving designed specifically for Ford trucks.
Do I need to replace both rear shocks?
Each shock is sold individually. Replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced ride control.
Why does this shock use a triple chrome-plated piston rod?
Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, so the ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated piston rod is designed to reduce seal wear.
