Help bring back the ride control, stability and handling your vehicle was designed with using the KYB shock absorber 344068, a front nitrogen gas-charged shock from the Excel-G line. It fits many Chevrolet and GMC vehicles, among them the 1963-1966 Chevrolet Suburban, 1975-1999 Chevrolet P30 and 1979-1999 GMC P3500. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
KYB supplies shocks and struts to new-vehicle manufacturers. The KYB Excel-G shock absorber is built on those same KYB OE assembly lines and uses the same OE-quality components. It is calibrated to restore the original, designed performance rather than change it, and that earned it KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification. KYB recommends it as a replacement shock.
- Twin-tube gas design: a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube shock that includes every quality component found in KYB's global OEM products.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Hand-assembled damping valves: vehicle-specific valves, built in-house, designed to manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
- Strong, thick body and brackets: designed to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment.
Electronic safety systems depend on the suspension, brakes and tires working as the vehicle manufacturer intended. This KYB gas shock absorber helps keep those systems performing as designed. Signs a shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing, nose-dive when braking, fluid leaking from the body and uneven tire wear. Replacing both front shocks together is recommended for balanced handling.
