Firm up the rear ride on your classic cruiser or hauler with the KYB shock absorber KG5522, a high-pressure monotube Gas-a-just gas shock. It installs at the rear position and is a direct-fit replacement for applications including the 1955-1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, 1965-1978 Ford LTD, 1967-1971 Ford Thunderbird, 1970-1980 Lincoln Continental, 1981-1989 Lincoln Town Car, 1967-1978 Mercury Marquis, 1970-1974 American Motors Ambassador, and 1998-2003 Toyota Sienna — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Monotube gas design: separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, with an air-free hydraulic piston area for control and a high-pressure nitrogen chamber with a floating piston.
  • Triple chrome-plated piston rod: since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, the ultra-smooth rod is designed to reduce seal wear.
  • Added damping: adds up to 25% more damping over original equipment shocks, with extra damping for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
  • Electronic safety systems: the higher gas pressure responds quickly to improve steering response and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the KYB Gas-a-just KG5522?

It's a high-pressure monotube gas shock absorber for the rear of the listed cars and trucks, using an air-free hydraulic piston area for control and a high-pressure nitrogen chamber with a floating piston.

Where does this shock install?

The catalog lists it as a rear-position shock absorber for the applications shown in the Buyer's Guide.

Why choose this KYB gas shock absorber over a twin-tube?

The monotube design separates the gas and oil so it resists fade due to aeration and responds instantly, unlike a traditional twin-tube shock.

How much damping does it add?

KYB rates the Gas-a-just at up to 25% more damping than original equipment shocks, with additional damping for vehicles that work, tow, or run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

Are these sold individually or in pairs?

This listing is for one shock. Replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride and handling.
