KYB Gas-a-just Rear Right Strut for Subaru Impreza

The KYB Gas-a-just 5510031 is a monotube suspension strut built as an OE-style replacement for the rear right position on the 2004 Subaru Impreza. It is engineered to restore original handling response, steering feel, and suspension control for drivers who want a direct replacement for the factory unit.

Key Features

• Monotube OE replacement strut for the rear right suspension position
• High-pressure gas and oil chambers are separated for consistent response and fade-resistant operation
• Triple chrome plated piston rod helps reduce seal wear and fluid leakage
• Higher gas pressure supports quicker steering response and control
• Designed to help maintain the performance of vehicle safety systems that rely on suspension behavior
• Compressed length: 18.66 in; extended length: 23.77 in; stroke length: 5.11 in
• Upper mount type: S1 (12MM); B-stop included

Product Details

KYB Gas-a-just struts use a two-chamber monotube design with an air-free hydraulic working area and a separate high-pressure nitrogen gas section. That layout supports responsive damping during normal driving while providing firmer control when suspension demand increases. For the 2004 Subaru Impreza, this KYB Gas-a-just strut helps restore the designed ride and handling balance at the rear right corner. Part number 5510031 is also referenced for OE-style replacement applications where the original monotube strut design is required.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Can Help Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor rebound control at the rear suspension
• Fluid leakage from a worn or failing strut
• Reduced steering response and loose handling feel
• Uneven ride quality caused by a weakened suspension damper
• Suspension performance issues that can affect braking and stability system behavior

Installation Notes

Fits 2004 Subaru Impreza, rear right. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Verify upper mount type, compressed length, and extended length before installation. This KYB Gas-a-just 5510031 is intended for the rear right position only on the listed application.

Quality Assurance

KYB is an established OE suspension supplier, and the Gas-a-just line is built as a monotube replacement to match factory-style suspension requirements. The design focuses on consistent damping, reduced seal wear, and dependable control for the Subaru Impreza application.
