KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG5477
Firm up rear-end control with the KYB Gas-a-just Shock Absorber KG5743, a high-pressure monotube gas shock that installs as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 2001-2006 Mitsubishi Montero. This KYB shock absorber uses a monotube design with components and valving developed specifically for the Montero, so it drops into the factory rear location without modification.
High-pressure monotube design: separates the gas and oil into two working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber with a floating piston — for fade-free operation and instant response, so it never experiences fade due to aeration.
Up to 25% more damping: the Gas-a-just adds up to 25% more damping performance over original-equipment shocks, with extra damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
Triple chrome-plated rod: an ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated piston rod helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure. The higher gas pressure is designed to improve steering response and helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as intended.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
Does this KYB gas shock absorber fit my vehicle?
It is a direct-fit rear replacement for the 2001-2006 Mitsubishi Montero. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact application for your vehicle.
What is the difference between the Gas-a-just and a twin-tube shock?
The Gas-a-just is a high-pressure monotube that separates the gas and oil into two chambers for fade-free operation and instant response, rather than the traditional twin-tube design.
How much more damping does this KYB shock absorber provide?
KYB rates the Gas-a-just to add up to 25% more damping performance over original-equipment shocks, with extra damping for vehicles that work, tow, or run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
Why does this Gas-a-just shock have a chrome-plated piston rod?
Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, so the Gas-a-just uses an ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated piston rod to help reduce seal wear.
Should I replace both rear shocks at once?
Shocks are sold individually; this listing is for one. Replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride and handling.
