Frequently Asked Questions

Should KYB shocks be replaced in pairs?
Replacing both shocks on the same axle is generally recommended so damping remains balanced. Follow KYB guidance and the vehicle service procedure for the exact application.

Will this KYB shock fit a lifted or lowered vehicle?
Only if the exact part number is specified for that ride height. Confirm extended length, compressed length, mounting style, suspension travel, and every application note.

What should be inspected while replacing the shock?
Inspect mounts, bushings, bump stops, boots, springs, fasteners, tires, and related suspension joints. Correct worn or damaged parts before alignment and road testing.

Follow the current KYB instructions and vehicle service manual for part number 5540056.
