KYB KG6415 front shock absorber for the 1988-1997 Ford F-53 Motorhome Chassis damps spring movement to keep the ride controlled. This KYB shock absorber is a high pressure monotube gas shock with components and valving designed specifically for Heavy Duty trucks.

  • KYB Gas-a-Just line: adjusts automatically and does not fade from aeration
  • Two working chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston
  • Added damping for vehicles that work, tow, and carry larger, heavier tires and wheels
  • Ultra-smooth triple chrome plated piston rod to reduce seal wear
  • Higher gas pressure that responds quickly to improve steering response

Is this a KYB gas shock absorber or a twin-tube design?

This is a gas shock. KYB KG6415 is a high pressure monotube that separates gas and oil, with a nitrogen gas area and a floating piston for fade-free operation.

How much extra damping does a KYB Gas-a-Just shock absorber give?

KYB KG6415 adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks, with extra damping for vehicles that work, tow and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

What is the piston rod on this front shock made to do?

The rod is ultra-smooth and triple chrome plated to reduce seal wear. Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.

Does this shock affect electronic safety systems?

Electronic safety systems depend on the suspension, brakes and tires operating as the vehicle manufacturer intended. This front shock helps keep those systems performing as designed.
