Smooth out the ride in your work truck with the KYB shock absorber KG54315, a high-pressure monotube Gas-a-just unit that drops in as a direct-fit FRONT replacement for the 1994-2001 Dodge Ram 1500 and 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500.

  • 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 for a comfortable ride during normal driving and added performance on demand.
  • Fade-free operation: the high-pressure monotube separates the gas and oil, so it never experiences fade due to aeration and gives instant response.
  • Triple chrome-plated piston rod: because fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, the ultra-smooth chrome rod is designed to reduce seal wear.
  • Extra damping for trucks that work: adds up to 25% more damping over original equipment shocks for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

The higher gas pressure of this KYB gas shock absorber responds quickly to help improve steering response, and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the vehicle manufacturer designed. Its components and valving are designed specifically for Dodge trucks. Sold individually; replacing the shocks on an axle in a matched pair is recommended for balanced handling. See the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the KYB shock absorber KG54315 fit?

It is a direct-fit FRONT replacement for the 1994-2001 Dodge Ram 1500 and 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the engine application for your truck.

What is the difference between this Gas-a-just and a twin-tube shock?

This is a high-pressure monotube gas shock with two separate chambers that separate the gas and oil, so it does not experience fade due to aeration and offers instant response versus a traditional twin-tube design.

Is this a KYB gas shock absorber Excel G unit?

No. KG54315 is a KYB Gas-a-just high-pressure monotube gas shock, which is a different line than Excel G. It uses a monotube design with a high-pressure nitrogen chamber.

Does it add more damping than a stock shock?

KYB states the Gas-a-just adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, with extra damping for trucks that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

Do I need to replace both front shocks at the same time?

Shocks are sold individually, so this listing is for one. Replacing both shocks on an axle as a matched pair is recommended for balanced, even handling.
