Rear Shock Absorber for 1979-1993 Dodge D150 & More - KYB KG5423

Control body motion and keep a working truck planted with the KYB shock absorber KG5423, a high-pressure monotube gas shock for the rear of these classic Dodge and Plymouth trucks. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1979-1993 Dodge D150 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

• Monotube gas 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. Separating the gas and oil is designed for fade-free operation and instant response.
• Built for Dodge trucks: components and valving designed specifically for Dodge trucks, with additional damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels — adding up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks.
• Triple chrome-plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth triple chrome plated piston rod is intended to reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
• Steering and safety support: the higher gas pressure responds quickly to help improve steering response, and helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed.

Excessive bounce, poor ride control, nose dive under braking, or fluid seeping from the shock body can be signs a shock may need replacing. Sold individually — this listing is for one; replacing the rear shocks as a matched pair is recommended for balanced damping.
