KYB Gas-a-Just Monotube Front Shock Absorber KG4515 for Buick Apollo, Electra and Estate Wagon

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 KYB Gas-a-just has two separate working chambers: An air-free hydraulic piston and valve area for responsiveness and 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.

• Electronic safety systems depend on the suspension, brakes and tires operating as the vehicle manufacturer intended. The KYB Gas-a-just helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed.

The KYB Gas-a-Just KG4515 is a high-performance monotube front shock absorber designed to help restore responsive handling, ride control and suspension performance on select Buick vehicles. Its monotube design uses separate working chambers to provide consistent damping and dependable control during everyday driving or more demanding road conditions.

An air-free hydraulic piston and valve area supports quick response, while a high-pressure nitrogen gas chamber with a floating piston helps prevent aeration-related fade.

The shock absorber also supports suspension operation relied upon by electronic safety systems, including systems that depend on properly functioning suspension, brakes and tires.
