KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG5477
Restore firm, controlled damping to your Toyota SUV with the KYB Gas-a-just High Pressure Monotube Gas Shock Absorber (KG5475). This KYB shock absorber drops in as an OE monotube replacement to bring back your vehicle's original ride and handling capabilities on the 1990-1995 Toyota 4Runner and 1981-1990 Toyota Land Cruiser. Its components and valving are designed specifically for Toyota SUVs.
The Gas-a-just uses two separate 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 that provides a comfortable ride during normal driving and adds instant performance on demand.

What vehicles does the KYB KG5475 shock absorber fit?
It fits the 1990-1995 Toyota 4Runner and the 1981-1990 Toyota Land Cruiser. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the correct position and application for your vehicle.
Is this a KYB Excel-G or a KYB gas shock absorber?
This is the KYB Gas-a-just, a high-pressure monotube gas shock absorber. It differs from the KYB Excel-G twin-tube line; the Gas-a-just uses a monotube design that separates the gas and oil.
What makes the Gas-a-just monotube design different?
It has two working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for control, and a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston for a comfortable ride and instant response.
Does this shock provide more damping than the original?
KYB states the Gas-a-just adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, designed for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
Why does the KG5475 use a triple chrome-plated piston rod?
Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, so the ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated rod is designed to reduce seal wear for longer, more consistent operation.
