KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG6796

Firm up rear-end control and tame body motion with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber (KG6796), a high-pressure monotube gas shock cataloged for the rear position. It drops in as an OE monotube replacement for the 1998-2003 Jaguar Vanden Plas, 1998-2003 Jaguar XJ8, and 1998-2003 Jaguar XJR — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details on your vehicle.

• Two working chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston for a comfortable ride during normal driving and added performance on demand.
• High-pressure monotube design: separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
• Triple chrome-plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod that helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
• Added damping: Gas-a-just monotubes include additional damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels — adding up to 25% more damping performance over original-equipment shocks.

The higher gas pressure responds quickly to help improve steering response, and the shock helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed.
