Firm up the rear ride of your Nissan truck with the KYB shock absorber KG5473, a high-pressure Gas-a-just monotube gas shock with components and valving designed specifically for Nissan trucks. It installs in the rear position of the 1986-1994 Nissan D21, 1995-1997 Nissan Pickup, and 1998-2004 Nissan Frontier.
Monotube gas design: High-pressure nitrogen separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, with no aeration during hard use.
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.
Built for work loads: Adds extra damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels — up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks.
Durable rod: An ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated piston rod is designed to reduce seal wear, a common cause of shock failure.
The higher gas pressure responds quickly to help improve steering response, and KYB notes the Gas-a-just helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed. Sold individually; replacing both rear shocks as a pair is recommended for balanced handling.
