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 classic AMC and Ford applications including the 1970-1974 AMERICAN MOTORS AMBASSADOR, 1970-1978 AMERICAN MOTORS GREMLIN, 1980-1988 AMERICAN MOTORS EAGLE, 1966-1970 FORD FAIRLANE, 1960-1970 FORD FALCON, 1971-1973 FORD MUSTANG and 1971-1973 MERCURY COUGAR — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 20 applications.

  • 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.
