The SHOCK LOW PRESSURE GAS (SINGLE) by KONI SHOCKS is a precision-engineered suspension component designed for drivers who demand responsive handling and controlled damping in demanding conditions. This single shock absorber unit serves as a replacement or upgrade component for vehicles requiring low-pressure gas-charged technology, making it ideal for performance enthusiasts, off-road drivers, and those seeking enhanced ride quality over factory suspension. The low-pressure gas design distinguishes this shock from standard hydraulic units, offering superior consistency across temperature ranges and load variations.
KONI's low-pressure gas shock technology utilizes a sealed chamber filled with pressurized nitrogen gas to maintain consistent damping force throughout the shock's travel range. This design reduces fade during extended use and provides more predictable response compared to monotube or twin-tube alternatives, particularly under high-speed compression or rapid articulation. The gas charge prevents aeration of the hydraulic fluid, ensuring stable performance in aggressive driving scenarios, while the compact profile—measuring 25.85 inches in length with a diameter of 2.85 inches—integrates seamlessly into most vehicle suspension geometry without clearance complications.
This single shock is best suited for suspension builders, restoration specialists, and replacement applications where OEM or performance upgrades are necessary. When purchasing, verify compatibility with your specific vehicle platform and mounting configuration, as shock selection depends on spring rate, ride height, and suspension geometry. At 4.46 lbs, this unit is lightweight enough for enthusiast installation without specialized equipment, though professional alignment and shock setup are recommended to maximize performance gains and ensure vehicle safety.
