KYB Suspension Strut P/N:KG9026
KYB KG9025 front suspension strut assembly for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner damps wheel and spring movement in a monotube body charged with high-pressure nitrogen gas. This KYB strut assembly adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks.
A bouncy or floaty ride, nose dive when braking, or a knock over bumps can mean a strut is worn. Worn mounts or tires can cause similar symptoms, so look the strut over for leaking fluid with the engine off and find the cause before replacing it. If the strut is the cause, this KYB suspension strut assembly replaces it. This listing is one strut, and both sides are normally replaced together.
It is an OE monotube replacement for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner, which takes two, one on each side of the front axle.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
Is this KYB front strut assembly a fit for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner?
Yes. KYB KG9025 is a front strut assembly for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner, and its components and valving are designed specifically for that vehicle.
Which axle does this 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner strut assembly go on?
It goes on the front axle, one on each side. This listing is a single strut, so the other side is a second unit.
How is the piston rod on this KYB suspension strut finished?
The piston rod on the KYB KG9025 is ultra-smooth triple chrome plated to reduce seal wear. Leaking fluid is one cause of shock failure.
How does the monotube design in this strut work?
A high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston is kept apart from the air-free hydraulic piston and valve area. This separation supports fade-free operation and instant response.
Are new strut mounts recommended with the KYB KG9025?
Yes. Mounts with part number SM5184 are recommended to lower the chance of noise and vibration, and they are a separate part from this strut.
