Settle the ride on your classic and keep the rear end planted with the KYB Excel-G KYB shock absorber (MPN 343131), a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas shock cataloged for the REAR position. It's KYB's recommended OEM replacement shock for classic domestic cars and fits many vehicles, among them the 1970-1981 Chevrolet Camaro, 1971 Chevrolet Vega and 1957-1958 Ford Country Sedan; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: the Excel-G is built on the very same KYB OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components, earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
  • Triple lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
  • Calibrated to restore, not change: tuned to help restore the vehicle's original designed control and handling rather than alter it.
  • Hand-assembled damping valves: vehicle-specific valving is built in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.

If worn rear shocks are behind a floaty ride, excessive bounce, or nose-dive under braking, this Excel-G gas shock is designed to bring damping back to the level KYB engineers for the original equipment.
