Description

Help settle down a bouncy back end and restore controlled handling with the KYB shock absorber, part number 343147 — a nitrogen gas-charged Excel-G unit for the rear position. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1975-1979 Toyota Corolla, 1976-1987 Chevrolet Chevette and 1972-1976 Toyota Mark II — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. Part of the KYB Excel-G line — classified OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) — this KYB gas shock absorber is calibrated to restore the vehicle's originally designed control and handling, not change it.

Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: built on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components.
Triple lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand-assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
Helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed by supporting suspension, brakes, and tires working as the manufacturer intended.

A worn rear shock may show up as excessive bounce, poor stability during lane changes, or reduced stopping composure — if a failed shock is the cause, this KYB Excel-G unit replaces it. Sold individually; replacing both sides together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride control.
