KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:343042

Description

Restore the ride control and handling of your Toyota with the KYB Excel-G Shock Absorber (MPN 343042), a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube rear damper. This KYB shock absorber drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the rear of the 1982-1986 Toyota Celica and the 1983-1988 Toyota Cressida. Part of KYB's Excel-G line — built on the same OE assembly lines KYB supplies to new-vehicle manufacturers — it's calibrated to restore a vehicle's original designed performance rather than change it, earning the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.

Gas-charged twin-tube design: a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube build that includes the same quality components used in KYB's 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.
Strong strut bodies and brackets: KYB uses thick bodies and brackets to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment in all conditions.

As a gas shock, the Excel-G is a #1 recommended Original Equipment replacement choice for Asian cars and is preferred by professional technicians. Shocks wear as a pair, so replacing both rear units together is recommended for balanced ride control.

How does the triple-lip seal help?
