What vehicle does the KG9004 fit?
It is listed as a rear-position replacement strut for the 1977-1983 BMW 320I. Check the Buyer's Guide tab and confirm fitment for your specific vehicle before ordering.
What is a monotube gas strut?
It uses two separate working chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston, keeping gas and oil separated for fade-free operation.
How does it differ from a twin-tube design?
The KYB Gas-a-just monotube separates the gas and oil, so it doesn't experience fade due to aeration and can respond instantly, adding performance on demand during driving.
Does this strut include a boot?
No boot is listed with this strut. KYB offers a separate KYB Strut Boot, part number SB113, to help protect your new struts from dirt, debris and salt.
How much damping does it add?
KYB states the Gas-a-just adds up to 25% more damping performance over original-equipment shocks, with components and valving designed specifically for the BMW 3 Series.
