The Gas-a-just monotube offers advantages over a traditional twin-tube design, adjusting automatically to driving demands without fade from aeration. It uses 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.
- Monotube design: separates gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
- Triple chrome-plated piston rod: ultra-smooth surface helps reduce seal wear from fluid leaking.
- Higher gas pressure: designed to respond quickly and improve steering response.
- Built for GM trucks: components and valving designed specifically for GM trucks, adding up to 25% more damping over OE shocks for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
