Detailed Description

Built for the rear suspension on the 2019-2020 Nissan Maxima, KYB 5530006 is a monotube shock absorber that replaces the original equipment style unit with a design focused on control and responsiveness. The internal air-free hydraulic section handles damping, while the high-pressure nitrogen chamber with a floating piston helps maintain stable performance under changing road conditions. This construction supports consistent ride quality during everyday driving and quicker suspension reaction when the vehicle is loaded or driven more aggressively. If you are replacing a worn rear suspension shock on a Nissan Maxima, 5530006 provides a direct-fit service part for restoring factory-like handling characteristics.

This part cross-references Nissan E62104RA2A and E62104RA2B for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive rear-end bounce or oscillation
• Reduced steering response from worn damping components
• Fluid leakage related to shock absorber wear
• Inconsistent ride control over rough pavement
• Suspension performance loss that can affect vehicle stability systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible with 2019-2020 Nissan Maxima rear suspension service. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Verify upper and lower mount types before installation, and confirm compressed and extended length requirements against the original part. Part number 5530006 should be matched to the vehicle’s rear application before assembly.
