KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:343419

Smooth out a bouncy rear end and reclaim composed handling with the KYB shock absorber Excel-G 343419, a rear-position gas shock built on KYB's OE assembly lines. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2008-2013 Volvo C30, the 2004-2011 Volvo S40, and the 2005-2011 Volvo V50 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application details.

The Excel-G is KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) line, calibrated to restore the vehicle's originally designed damping rather than change it:

• Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: uses OE-quality components to manage ride control, stability and body movement.
• Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to help manage tire contact and steering response.
• Triple lip fluid seal: designed to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
• Supports electronic safety systems: helps keep them performing as the manufacturer intended by maintaining designed suspension behavior.

Worn rear shocks may show up as excess bounce, nose dive, or poor control over bumps; if the original rear shock is the cause, this KYB gas shock absorber replaces it. Sold individually — replace both rear shocks together as a matched pair for balanced ride control.
