Front Shock Absorber for 2002-2008 Dodge Ram 1500 - KYB KG5785

Firm up the front end of your work truck with the KYB shock absorber KG5785, a high-pressure monotube gas unit that drops in as a direct-fit front replacement for the 2002-2008 Dodge Ram 1500. This is a Gas-a-just monotube, engineered with components and valving designed specifically for Dodge trucks so it handles vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

Unlike a traditional twin-tube, the monotube keeps two separate working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, and a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston for a comfortable ride during normal driving with performance on demand.

• High-pressure monotube design: separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
• Up to 25% more damping: adds damping performance over original equipment shocks.
• Triple chrome-plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod helps reduce seal wear, since leaking fluid can be a cause of shock failure.
• Electronic Safety System support: helps keep those systems performing as designed by supporting intended suspension behavior.

The higher gas pressure responds quickly to help improve steering response. As a KYB gas shock absorber, this is a per-corner unit — replace both fronts as a matched pair for balanced ride control.
