KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:SA1016
Upgrade your rear ride control with the KYB shock absorber KG5524, a high-pressure monotube Gas-a-just gas shock that installs as a rear direct-fit replacement for the 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro and 1967 Pontiac Firebird. Its components and valving are designed specifically for the Camaro and Firebird, and the monotube design keeps the nitrogen gas and oil separated in two working chambers — an air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness plus a high-pressure gas area with a floating piston — for fade-free operation and instant response.
If a worn or leaking rear shock is behind excessive bounce, poor body control, or uneven ride, this KYB gas shock absorber replaces it. Sold individually; replace both sides together as a matched pair for balanced ride control.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What vehicles does the KYB shock absorber KG5524 fit?
It is a rear direct-fit replacement for the 1967-1969 Chevrolet Camaro and the 1967 Pontiac Firebird. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your exact vehicle.
Is this a monotube or twin-tube shock?
It is a high-pressure monotube gas shock (KYB Gas-a-just). The monotube design keeps the nitrogen gas and oil in separate chambers for fade-free operation and instant response.
What makes this KYB gas shock absorber different from OE shocks?
The Gas-a-just adds damping over the OE design for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels — up to 25% more damping performance over original equipment shocks.
How does the triple chrome-plated piston rod help?
Fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure. The ultra-smooth triple chrome-plated piston rod is designed to reduce seal wear, helping protect against that type of leakage.
Do I need to replace both rear shocks?
Shocks are sold individually, so this listing is for one. Replacing both sides together as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced rear ride control.
