KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:343148
Bring settled, controlled ride motion back to the rear of your car with the KYB shock absorber 343177, a gas shock from KYB's Excel-G line. It installs as a direct-fit rear replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1987-1994 Chevrolet Beretta, 1982-1994 Chevrolet Cavalier and 1987-1994 Chevrolet Corsica — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered vehicles and engines.
Excel-G is calibrated to restore a vehicle's original, designed damping performance rather than change it, earning Excel-G its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
If worn rear shocks are behind excess bounce, poor stability or reduced ride control, this replaces them.
