KYB Gas-a-Just Front Strut for F-150
The KYB Gas-a-just 5510048 is a front suspension strut for 2021-2025 Ford F-150 models without electronic suspension and without the Heavy Duty Payload Package. It is built as an OE monotube replacement to restore factory ride control, with responsive damping for everyday driving and added performance when road conditions demand it.
For Ford F-150 front suspension service, this KYB Gas-a-just strut combines hydraulic responsiveness with high-pressure nitrogen gas support. The result is controlled ride behavior during normal use and quicker reaction when the suspension is working harder.
