KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG5782
Firm up the ride and control body motion with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber KG5507, a high-pressure monotube gas shock for the rear position. It's a direct-fit replacement for a long list of classic GM and AMC applications, including the 1970 AMC Gremlin and Hornet, 1971-1984 Buick Electra, 1958-1975 & 1981 Chevrolet Bel Air, 1966-1970 & 1973-1996 Chevrolet Caprice, 1959-1985 & 1994-1996 Chevrolet Impala, 1971-1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88, and 1963-1981 Pontiac Bonneville and Catalina — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
The higher gas pressure of the Gas-a-just responds quickly to help improve steering response, and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed. For balanced handling, replacing the shocks on an axle as a pair is a good practice.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What position does the KG5507 shock fit?
It is cataloged for the rear position on the listed applications. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm fitment for your specific vehicle.
What type of shock absorber is this?
The KYB Gas-a-just is a high-pressure monotube gas shock. Its monotube design separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
How is this different from a twin-tube shock?
It uses two separate chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston/valve area for control and a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston, so it resists fade from aeration.
Are these shocks sold in pairs?
This listing is for the shock as supplied. For balanced handling, replacing both shocks on the same axle as a matched pair is a recommended best practice.
What are signs my rear shocks may need replacing?
Common signs include excessive bouncing, poor body control over bumps, uneven or accelerated tire wear, and fluid leaking from the shock body. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
