Firm up a truck that works, tows, and rides on larger, heavier tires with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Shock Absorber (KG54342), a high-pressure monotube gas shock for the REAR position. It's an OE monotube replacement designed to restore your vehicle's original capabilities, and it drops in across a wide range of full-size trucks — 2004-2006 and 2019-2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2007 Silverado 1500 Classic, 2001-2003 and 2005-2006 Silverado 1500 HD, 1999-2004 Silverado 2500, 2001-2010 Silverado 2500 HD, the matching GMC Sierra 1500, 1500 HD, 2500 and 2500 HD variants, plus 2002-2010 Dodge Ram 1500, 2011-2018 Ram 1500 and 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application and engine list.

  • Two working chambers: an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and control, plus a high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber with a floating piston for a comfortable ride and instant performance on demand.
  • Extra damping: adds up to 25% more damping performance over original-equipment shocks for vehicles that work, tow, and carry larger, heavier tires and wheels.
  • Fade-free operation: the high-pressure monotube design separates gas and oil for fade-free response, and the triple-chrome-plated piston rod reduces seal wear.
  • Safety-system support: helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as the vehicle manufacturer designed.
