• Monotube gas design: two separate working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston — so it never experiences fade due to aeration.
• Triple chrome plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
• Higher gas pressure: the Gas-a-just's higher gas pressure is designed to improve steering response, and adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks.
• Built for GM trucks: components and valving designed specifically for GM trucks, with additional damping over OE for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

The high-pressure monotube design separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed. Sold individually; replace the rear pair together for balanced ride control.
