Description

Help smooth out a floaty ride and restore firm damping with the KYB Excel-G Shock Absorber (MPN 343156), a nitrogen gas-charged front shock built on KYB's OE assembly lines. This KYB shock absorber is a direct-fit replacement for many classic American Motors, Ford and Mercury vehicles, among them the 1971-1973 Ford Mustang, 1970-1974 American Motors Ambassador and 1980-1988 American Motors Eagle — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.

Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: the Excel-G uses the same OE-quality components found in KYB's global OEM products, calibrated to restore original designed performance rather than change it.
OEA — Original Equipment for the Aftermarket: designed to restore the vehicle's original ride control, stability and handling.
Triple lip fluid seal: reduces 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.

KYB is a world-leading supplier of shocks and struts to new-vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G is a preferred choice among professional technicians for classic domestic cars.
