KYB Suspension Strut P/N:551131

$211.99

Description

Restore firm, controlled handling with the KYB Gas-a-just Suspension Strut (MPN 551131), a high-pressure monotube gas strut that installs at the front-left corner as a direct-fit replacement for the 2016 Lexus IS200t, 2006-2015 Lexus IS250, and 2006-2016 Lexus IS350.

Offered as an OE monotube replacement, the Gas-a-just is designed to help restore the vehicle's designed control and handling.

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.
High-pressure monotube design: separates the gas and oil for fade-free operation and instant response.
Triple chrome-plated piston rod: an ultra-smooth rod helps reduce seal wear, since fluid leaking can be a cause of shock failure.
Built for demanding use: designed for vehicles that work, tow, and run larger, heavier tires and wheels, and the higher gas pressure responds quickly to help improve steering response.

KYB notes that electronic safety systems depend on suspension, brakes, and tires operating as intended, and this strut helps keep them performing as designed. To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts, part number SM5642.
