KYB 565084 Shock Absorber - Front

KYB MonoMax Front Shock for Toyota Trucks

The KYB MonoMax 565084 is a front suspension shock absorber built for Toyota trucks that need firmer control under load, on rough roads, or during towing. Its monotube construction and large-bore design are aimed at improving stability and damping response for heavier-duty use.

Key Features

• Heavy-duty monotube shock absorber for front suspension use
• Up to 40% more damping performance than standard shock absorbers
• Zinc-coated stainless steel piston ring for sealing in demanding conditions
• Rubber dust boot helps protect the shaft from dirt and debris
• Engineered to work with vehicles equipped with electronic safety systems such as ESC and ABS
• Front fitment for 1986-1995 Toyota 4Runner, 1986-1995 Toyota Pickup, and 1993-1998 Toyota T100 with 0-2 inch lift replacement applications

Product Details

KYB MonoMax shocks are part of KYB’s truck-focused suspension line, built for drivers who need more control from a front shock absorber without changing the vehicle’s basic suspension layout. The KYB MonoMax 565084 uses a monotube design to help maintain consistent damping under changing road conditions, which is useful for Toyota 4Runner, Toyota Pickup, and Toyota T100 front suspension setups that see work use, off-road driving, or added load. This part number, 565084, is listed for lift replacement applications with 0-2 inches of lift on the confirmed Toyota fitments.

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

What It Helps Address

• Excessive front-end bounce over uneven pavement
• Reduced control when towing or hauling
• Suspension fade during repeated heavy use
• Loose handling feel on lifted Toyota truck applications
• Dirt and debris exposure around the shock shaft and seals
