Deliver firm, controlled front-suspension damping with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber KG5433, a high-pressure monotube gas shock that installs at the front of your compact pickup. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1979-1982 Dodge D50, 1983-1986 Dodge Power Ram 50, 1983-1993 Dodge Ram 50, 1983-1996 Mitsubishi Mighty Max, and 1979-1982 Plymouth Arrow Pickup.

  • Monotube gas design: The high-pressure monotube separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, pairing an air-free hydraulic piston/valve area with a floating-piston high-pressure nitrogen chamber.
  • Truck-tuned valving: Components and valving designed specifically for trucks, adding damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
  • Up to 25% more damping: Adds up to 25% more damping performance over original-equipment shocks, and the higher gas pressure is designed to improve steering response.
  • Triple chrome-plated rod: Since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, the ultra-smooth triple chrome plated piston rod helps reduce seal wear.

By supporting consistent suspension motion, the Gas-a-just helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the vehicle manufacturer intended. Signs the original front shocks may need replacing include excessive bouncing, nose-dive under braking, and fluid weeping. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.

Is this a front or rear shock?

The KG5433 is cataloged as a front shock absorber for the listed applications.

What makes the Gas-a-just monotube different from a twin-tube shock?

Its high-pressure monotube separates the gas and oil, using an air-free hydraulic piston/valve area plus a floating-piston nitrogen chamber for fade-free operation and instant response.

How much more damping does it provide?

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

What are signs my front shocks may need replacing?

Common signs include excessive bouncing, nose-dive under braking, poor ride control, and fluid weeping. Diagnose the cause first, since other suspension parts can produce similar symptoms.
