KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG54308
KYB KG6797 rear shock absorber for the 1994-1997 Jaguar XJ6 and other vehicles damps rear suspension movement with a high-pressure monotube gas design. It adds up to 25% more damping performance than original equipment shocks.
Fluid leaking from the shock body, a bouncy ride or slower steering response can mean a shock is wearing out. Worn suspension bushings, a weak spring or uneven tire wear can be behind a rough ride or loose steering too, so find the cause before buying.
This shock is an OE monotube replacement for the 1994-1997 Jaguar XJ6 and the 1994-1996 Jaguar XJ12, with components and valving designed specifically for these cars. Each car takes two; this listing is one rear shock absorber, and both sides are normally replaced together.
