    Firm up a worn front end with the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber KG5477, a high-pressure monotube gas shock designed to restore your GM truck's original ride control. It fits many vehicles in the front position, among them the 1987-1991 Chevrolet Blazer, 1989-1991 Chevrolet V1500 Suburban and 1989-1991 Chevrolet V2500 Suburban. This front-position KYB shock absorber is offered as an OE monotube replacement, with components and valving designed specifically for GM trucks.

    • High-pressure monotube design: separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
    • 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 and added performance on demand.
    • Triple chrome-plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod that helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
    • Extra damping capacity: adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks — built for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels — and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the manufacturer intended.
