Rear Shock Absorber for 1989-2011 Ford Ranger & More - KYB KG5493

Help firm up a loaded ride with the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber KG5493, a high-pressure monotube gas KYB shock absorber built as a direct-fit rear replacement. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1990-1996 Ford F-150, 1992-1998 Ford F-250 and 1989-2011 Ford Ranger. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full engine-level fitment. This monotube design separates the nitrogen gas and hydraulic oil for fade-free operation and quick response, with components and valving designed specifically for Ford trucks.

• Monotube gas design: An air-free hydraulic piston/valve chamber for control plus a separate high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber with a floating piston, so it resists fade from aeration.
• Up to 25% more damping: Adds additional damping over the OE shock for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
• Triple chrome-plated piston rod: An ultra-smooth rod helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
• Supports safety systems: Helps keep the electronic safety systems performing as designed by maintaining intended suspension operation.

The higher gas pressure is designed to respond quickly for improved steering response.
