Restore the designed ride control, stability, and handling of your BMW with the KYB Excel-G Rear Right Shock Absorber 341727. It's a direct-fit replacement for the rear right position on the 2007-2013 BMW X5 and 2008-2014 BMW X6 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment). Built on KYB's OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components, the Excel-G is calibrated to restore original, designed performance rather than change it — the classification KYB calls OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) and a preferred choice among professional technicians.
- Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: a KYB-recommended OEM replacement shock that helps restore the designed control and handling of your BMW.
- Triple lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves: assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Supports electronic safety systems: helps keep them performing as designed, with strong, thick strut bodies and brackets that minimize flex to maintain correct alignment.
Sold individually; replacing both sides of the axle together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride control.
