Help restore the designed control and handling of the 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Strut Assembly (P/N 551608), a high-pressure monotube gas strut that installs at the FRONT as an OE monotube replacement. If you're shopping a KYB front strut assembly to bring back the SRX's original ride, this Gas-a-just is the correct, monotube-designed OE replacement.

  • 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, with higher gas pressure that responds quickly to help improve steering response.
  • Triple chrome plated piston rod: ultra-smooth to reduce seal wear — fluid leaking can be a cause of strut failure.
  • Built for hard use: designed for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels, and helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as the manufacturer intended.

Replacing the front struts as a matched pair is recommended for balanced, even handling. Fits the 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX — see the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this KYB strut fit my Cadillac SRX?

Yes. P/N 551608 is a direct-fit FRONT strut for the 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the correct configuration for your vehicle.

How does the KYB Gas-a-just monotube design work?

It uses two chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston that separates gas and oil for fade-free operation.

Should I replace both front struts at once?

Replacing the front struts as a matched pair is recommended for balanced, even handling, even if only one side currently shows wear.

Does the piston rod help reduce wear?

Yes. The KYB Gas-a-just has an ultra-smooth triple chrome plated piston rod designed to reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of strut failure.

What are signs my strut may need replacing?

Possible signs include excessive bounce, nose dive under braking, reduced steering response, uneven tire wear, or fluid leaking from the strut. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
