KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG5446

Take the guesswork out of ride control with this KYB shock absorber, the Gas-a-just KG5446 — a high-pressure monotube gas shock cataloged for the front position. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1980-1982 Chevrolet LUV, 1981-1986 Nissan 720, 1986-1994 Nissan D21, 1995-1997 Nissan Pickup, 1998-2001 Nissan Frontier, and 2000-2004 Nissan Xterra.

• High-pressure monotube design: separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, avoiding the aeration fade of a traditional twin-tube.
• Two working chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen chamber with a floating piston for a comfortable ride and performance on demand.
• Triple chrome-plated piston rod: ultra-smooth to reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking is a cause of shock failure.
• Truck-tuned valving: components and valving designed specifically for trucks, adding up to 25% more damping over OE for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

This KYB gas shock absorber's higher gas pressure responds quickly to improve steering response, and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed, since they depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires working as intended. Sold individually; for balanced handling, replace both front shocks together as a matched pair.
