Review on KYB KG5533 Gas A Just Gas Shock by Vedprakash Trilltight

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Light, inexpensive and a big improvement in ride and handling!

I installed front and rear shock absorbers and they made a huge difference in ride quality! Feels like a new car! And while they're inexpensive, it's worth replacing every few years to keep the new ride. Not sure what the expected lifespan is, but after the first month they still feel great and I haven't had any issues with them! It was actually more difficult to remove the existing ones because the bottom bolts had a bit of play, but KYB redesigned where the bottom nuts go so they're easier to reach with a wrench or a space socket! Good job KIB! My machine requires no special tools - just a basic set of sockets and wrenches. Installation took a little over an hour. Just make sure you park the car on a level surface and re-tighten the upper strut nuts to ensure they are properly seated.

Pros
  • Unique airless hydraulic unit eliminates power drop
Cons
  • Something different
