What is the advantage of a monotube shock absorber?

Monotube shocks, like these KYB Gas-a-just units, have a single tube with separate chambers for gas and hydraulic fluid. This design helps prevent aeration and foaming, which can lead to shock fade, and allows for more precise damping adjustments.

Do these shocks come with new mounting hardware?

This product includes the KYB Excel-G rear shocks. It is recommended to inspect your existing mounting hardware for wear and tear, and replace it if necessary, as hardware is typically sold separately.

How do these shocks help with electronic safety systems?

Electronic safety systems rely on the suspension, brakes, and tires working together as the vehicle manufacturer intended. By restoring your Tacoma's suspension to its original performance with these shocks, you help ensure these systems can function correctly.

Product Details

If you're looking to restore the ride and handling on your 1999-2004 Toyota Tacoma 2WD, these KYB Excel-G rear shocks are a solid option. They are designed to help your truck handle the road like it did when it was new, ensuring a comfortable ride during everyday driving while still offering responsive control when you need it.

These aren't your average shocks. The KYB Gas-a-just design uses a monotube construction with two separate working chambers. One chamber has an air-free hydraulic piston and valve system for precise control, while the other holds high-pressure nitrogen gas separated by a floating piston. This setup means the shock can automatically adjust to changing road conditions, providing a smooth ride on the highway and firmer damping when you hit bumps or need to corner. This design also helps prevent the shock from fading, even under heavy use.

Keeping your suspension working as the manufacturer intended is important for the overall performance of your vehicle, including how electronic safety systems function. These KYB shocks help ensure those systems operate as designed.
