Smooth out the ride and sharpen steering response with the KYB shock absorber KG5783, a high-pressure monotube gas front shock. It's a direct-fit front replacement for the 1998-2003 Jaguar Vanden Plas, 1998-2003 Jaguar XJ8, and 1998-2003 Jaguar XJR — see the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.

Part of KYB's Gas-a-Just line, this OE monotube replacement is built to restore your vehicle's original capabilities.

  • 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.
  • Quick response: The higher gas pressure of the Gas-a-Just responds quickly to help improve steering response and adds up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks.
  • Fade-free design: The high-pressure monotube design separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response, with extra damping over OE for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels.
  • Reduced seal wear: An ultra-smooth triple-chrome-plated piston rod helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.

KYB says its components and valving are designed specifically for your Jaguar, and the Gas-a-Just helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed.
