Gas A Just
Top quality construction for vehicle applications where a high-pressure monotube shock absorber is required to deliver the handling characteristics desired by vehicle manufacturers such as Jaguar and Mercedes. Outstanding features include: Breakage is reduced by seamless eye ring mountings Hard-chromed piston rod to reduce friction Wear-resistant piston ring Large diameter seamless steel cylinders resist splitting Single tube design reduces heat build-up Both the extension and compression valves are located in piston for quick response to forces in either direction Provides consistent control regardless of temperature because the all weather fluid remains near constant viscosity Gas and fluid are completely separated by a floating dividing piston featuring special patented O-ring design Nitrogen gas keeps all-weather fluid under constant high pressure, preventing foaming and aeration

	SKORCHED 4's - Made to be punished! Made to last The best ride control means nothing if it doesn’t last. That’s why KYB have engineered SKORCHED 4’s to endure the punishment of Off-Road driving. Designed and tested here in Australia. Outback driving can quickly render a sub-standard shock absorber useless. Excessive heat build-up due to incorrect valving and low oil volume will cause failures relatively quickly. To increase oil capacity in the shock absorber, KYB has opted for a 16mm diameter piston rod. The greater the oil volume, the slower the heat build-up. A 35mm piston diameter gives a comfortable ride. Carefully selected velocity-sensitive valving, matched to ‘King Springs’ coils and leaf springs offer an uncompromised ride.
The result is increased wheel travel and ground clearance (when fitted in conjunction with raised King Springs) with improved stability and control over rough terrain. This integrated suspension system is designed to also support vehicle accessories and offer increased vehicle dynamics when towing. Unparalleled Ride Control Reduced nose diving when braking Rugged precision engineered SKORCHED 4’s give 4WD’s a controlled, precise handling ride that some other shocks cannot deliver Controls vehicle pitch and roll Precisely controls ride with auto-adaptive valving.

	AGX Import Sport High performance vehicles have become one of the hottest segments in the market. Now, KYB introduces the perfect high performance shock for today's technology aware consumer. Built with the advanced engineering and exceptional quality you'd expect from KYB, AGX lets drivers tune their shocks to match driving conditions in seconds. Fast on-car adjustment: no need to lift the vehicle or remove anything to change settings. Damping rate is selected with an external knob on the shock body or a screwdriver slot at the top of the piston rod, depending on the model. Adjustable damping allows one shock to meet all conditions: Drag strip, Cruising, High Speed Touring, Street and Track. The single damping adjustment on the AGX Shock changes both the rebound and compression valving. Depending on the model, there are either four or eight stages of adjustment.
In addition to manually adjustable damping settings, AGX features 3-stage, real-time, auto adjusting damping.When driving on a smooth surface, shock movements are relatively slow and the AGX valving allows the shock to travel freely. As road conditions get rougher, the shock is compressed faster. AGX responds instantly to make response firmer, maintaining tyre contact and vehicle control.
