Firm up ride control on a hard-working Dodge with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber KG5422, a high-pressure monotube gas shock built as a direct-fit front replacement. It fits the 1974-1993 Dodge Ramcharger, 1978-1980 Dodge RD200, 1977-1993 Dodge W150, 1981-1993 Dodge W250, 1981-1993 Dodge W350 and 1974-1981 Plymouth Trailduster, plus additional Dodge W100, W200 and W300 pickup and series trucks — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Monotube gas design: A single high-pressure tube separates the nitrogen gas from the oil, with an air-free hydraulic piston/valve chamber for control and a floating-piston gas chamber, helping resist aeration fade.
  • Built for trucks: Components and valving designed specifically for Dodge trucks, with additional damping over OE for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
  • Triple chrome-plated piston rod: An ultra-smooth rod helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
  • Adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the manufacturer designed.

Signs a front shock may need replacing include excessive bounce, nose dive, fluid leaks, and reduced ride control.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the KYB KG5422 fit?

It is a front-position shock for trucks including the 1974-1993 Dodge Ramcharger, 1977-1993 W150, 1981-1993 W250 and W350, 1978-1980 RD200, 1974-1981 Plymouth Trailduster, and other W100/W200/W300 models. Check the Buyer's Guide tab.

Is this a monotube or twin-tube shock?

It is a high-pressure monotube gas shock. The single tube separates the nitrogen gas from the oil in distinct chambers, which helps resist aeration-related fade during operation.

What position does the KG5422 install in?

The catalog lists this KYB Gas-a-just as a front shock absorber for the listed applications.

How much damping does it add over stock?

KYB rates the Gas-a-just at up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, with valving designed specifically for Dodge trucks that work and tow.

What are signs my shock may need replacing?

Common signs include excessive bouncing, nose dive under braking, fluid leaks, and reduced ride control. Diagnose the cause first, and if a worn front shock is the issue, this replaces it.
