Get fade-free, responsive damping from this KYB shock absorber, the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber KG5433, a front high-pressure monotube gas shock with components and valving designed specifically for trucks. It fits many vehicles as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, among them the 1983-1993 Dodge Ram 50, 1983-1986 Dodge Power Ram 50 and 1979-1982 Dodge D50. This KYB gas shock absorber uses two separate working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen chamber with a floating piston — so it resists fade from aeration and responds instantly on demand.

  • Monotube gas design: separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and quick response.
  • Up to 25% more damping over original-equipment shocks, with components and valving designed specifically for trucks.
  • Built to work and tow: adds damping over the OE design for vehicles that carry loads 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.

The higher gas pressure is designed to improve steering response, and KYB notes the Gas-a-just helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the vehicle manufacturer intended. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment.

How much more damping does this shock provide?

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

Should I replace shocks in pairs?

This listing is for one shock, sold individually. Replacing shocks as a matched pair on the same axle is recommended for balanced, even ride control.
