Bring back the settled, controlled ride your Honda Civic was engineered to deliver with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Shock Absorber 3430099. This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube shock installs as a direct-fit replacement in the rear-left position on the 2016-2026 Honda Civic, and it's calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed performance rather than change it.
- Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: includes every quality component KYB builds into its global OEM products.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to correctly manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
- Supports Electronic Safety Systems: helps keep systems that depend on the suspension, brakes and tires performing as the vehicle manufacturer intended.
Made on the same KYB OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components, the Excel-G has earned KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification and is the #1 recommended Original Equipment replacement choice for Asian cars, helping restore the designed control and handling of your Civic. Sold individually as the rear-left unit; for even, balanced ride control KYB recommends replacing shocks as a matched pair per axle.
