Firm up ride control at the rear of your Jaguar with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber KG6797, a high-pressure monotube gas shock that drops in as a rear-position OE monotube replacement to help restore your vehicle's original capabilities. It's engineered as a direct-fit rear shock for the 1994-1996 Jaguar XJ12 and 1994-1997 Jaguar XJ6, with components and valving designed specifically for the Jaguar XJ.

  • 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.
  • Monotube design: separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
  • Triple chrome-plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
  • Higher gas pressure responds quickly to help improve steering response, and adds up to 25% more damping over original equipment shocks — with additional damping for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.

KYB notes the Gas-a-just also helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed, since those systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires operating as the manufacturer intended.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the KYB KG6797 shock fit?

It's a direct-fit rear shock for the 1994-1996 Jaguar XJ12 and 1994-1997 Jaguar XJ6. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.

Is this a front or rear shock?

It is a rear-position suspension shock absorber for the listed Jaguar XJ applications.

What type of shock is the Gas-a-just?

A high-pressure monotube gas shock. Its monotube design separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.

Why does it use a triple chrome-plated piston rod?

The ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated rod helps reduce seal wear. Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure, so the smoother rod helps limit that.

How much damping does it add over OE shocks?

KYB states the Gas-a-just adds 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.
