Silence a worn, bouncy ride with the KYB shock absorber KG5434, a High Pressure Monotube Gas Shock from the KYB Gas-a-just line. It drops in as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 1979-1981 Dodge D50, 1979-1981 Plymouth Arrow Pickup, 1982-1983 Toyota Pickup, and 1993-1998 Toyota T100 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail.

This KYB gas shock absorber runs a monotube design that separates the nitrogen gas and hydraulic oil, so it resists fade from aeration and reacts instantly to changing road inputs.

  • Two 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.
  • Higher gas pressure: designed to respond quickly and improve steering response.
  • Truck-tuned valving: components and valving designed specifically for trucks, adding up to 25% more damping over original equipment shocks for vehicles that work, tow, and carry larger, heavier tires and wheels.
  • Triple chrome plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod that reduces seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.

Replace rear shocks as a matched pair for even, balanced damping.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the KYB Gas-a-just KG5434?

It is a high-pressure monotube gas shock absorber that separates the nitrogen gas and hydraulic oil in two chambers for fade-free operation and instant response.

Which vehicles does this KYB gas shock absorber fit?

It is a rear direct-fit for the 1979-1981 Dodge D50, 1979-1981 Plymouth Arrow Pickup, 1982-1983 Toyota Pickup, and 1993-1998 Toyota T100. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for engine detail.

How does the monotube design differ from a twin-tube shock?

The high-pressure monotube keeps the gas and oil separated so it resists fade from aeration and responds quickly, whereas a twin-tube design can aerate under hard use.

Does this shock offer more damping than a stock unit?

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

Should I replace both rear shocks at once?

Replacing rear shocks as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced damping. This listing is for one shock; order two if you are replacing both sides.
