Front Shock Absorber for 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 & More - KYB KG54102

Firm up a working truck's front end with the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber (KG54102), a high-pressure monotube gas shock that installs as a direct-fit front replacement for the 1994-2001 Dodge Ram 1500 and the 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the engine-level applications.

This KYB gas shock absorber uses a monotube design that separates the gas and oil into two working chambers, so it resists fade from aeration and responds quickly. Its higher nitrogen gas pressure is designed to sharpen steering response, while the components and valving are built specifically for Dodge trucks.

• Monotube gas design: a hydraulic piston/valve chamber plus a high-pressure nitrogen chamber with a floating piston for fade-free operation and instant response.
• Triple chrome-plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod that helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leakage is a common cause of shock failure.
• Extra damping: adds up to 25% more damping over original-equipment shocks — intended for trucks that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
• Safety-system support: helps keep the suspension performing as the manufacturer intended so electronic safety systems work as designed.

Signs a worn front shock may need replacing include excessive bounce, nose-dive under braking, and fluid seepage down the body. Shocks wear gradually, so replacing the front pair together supports even, balanced control. Sold individually.
