Your cart is empty.The KYB Gas-a-Just monotube shock absorber has additional performance advantages over the traditional twin-tube design: It can instantly, automatically adjust to your performance needs and never experiences fade due to aeration. The Gas-a-Just is available as an OE monotube replacement and as an OE twin-tube performance upgrade. The KYB Gas-a-Just has two separate working chambers: An air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness & control, and a second high-pressure nitrogen gas area with a floating piston that provides a comfortable ride during normal driving and adds instant performance on demand.

According to the manufacturer these shocks are 20% better than original equipment. I believe it. They are certainly better than the ones I replaced. Very easy to install, and they work well.I only have two complaints:First, the instructions that come with all KYB shocks are worthless. (Thankfully I know how to install them without instructions. Experience is everything, sometimes.)Second, I wish they dampened the ride more. These shocks are a vast improvement over the worn out ones I replaced, but the ride is still a little spongy. I spoke with the technical department at KYB about this. They explained that this is due to them designing these shocks to target a happy medium of ride preference. In other words, some people might not prefer the firm ride that I happen to like.All in all, I would say these are the best shocks you might find for a passenger car or minivan. If you have a truck or SUV upgrade to the KYB Monomax or Ranchos.

Shocks were delivered earlier than I expected " Thank you " and were packed very well.I installed the shocks on a Ford Windstar van, to replace the Monroe's that lasted approx. 55 thousand miles.Basic mounting with a bolt and nut through a round bushing on each of the shocks. Lots of penetrating oil, anda socket set, and also wrench set.The shocks are quite a improvement, and noticed right away. Going over some nearby road construction, the van handledthe dips and bumps very well. The ride is firm and stable, making the van more nimble and assuring when taking corners, andtracks well when simulating a frantic lane change.Knowing from experience, these shocks should break-in and become more tuned to the area you drive making the shockseven better with as break-in mileage gets increased, ( approx. 500 + miles ).I also like the mono tube design over the double, for durability, and support.

These shocks were purchased for a Manco Deuce go kart. After buying the right size 12mm bolts, they worked like a dream. The arrived fast and everything was complete.
