KYB Suspension Strut P/N:KG9026
Firm up rear damping and keep your classic Nissan planted with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Strut KG9101, a high-pressure monotube gas unit. It installs as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 1979-1981 Nissan 280ZX, 1977-1981 Nissan 810, and 1981-1984 Nissan Maxima. The monotube design separates the gas and oil so the strut resists fade due to aeration and responds instantly during normal driving.
The higher gas pressure is designed to improve steering response, and KYB notes the Gas-a-just helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the vehicle manufacturer intended. Signs the rear damper may need replacing include excessive bounce, nose dive, or fluid seepage.
