Keep your truck planted and controlled with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber (KG5491), a high-pressure monotube gas shock that drops in as a rear OE monotube replacement to help restore your vehicle's original ride and handling. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1989 Dodge Raider and the 1989-1991 Mitsubishi Montero (see the Buyer's Guide tab for full application details).

This Gas-a-just design 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 for a comfortable ride during normal driving and added performance on demand.

  • Truck-tuned damping: Components and valving designed specifically for trucks, adding 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.
  • Fade-free operation: The high-pressure monotube design separates gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
  • Reduced seal wear: An ultra-smooth triple-chrome-plated piston rod helps reduce seal wear, a common cause of shock failure.
  • Quicker steering response: Higher gas pressure responds quickly to improve steering response and helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed.
