KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:344434
Bring back the composed, factory-calibrated ride of your Jeep Cherokee with the KYB Excel-G Gas Shock Absorber (P/N 344089), a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube KYB shock absorber built to restore the vehicle's original damping — not change it. It installs as a direct-fit rear shock for the 1997-2001 Jeep Cherokee (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail). KYB is a world-leading OE supplier, and the Excel-G is made on the same OE assembly lines using OE-quality components, earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
KYB recommends the Excel-G as an OEM replacement shock for SUVs and crossovers, and it helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the manufacturer intended. If worn rear shocks are the cause of a bouncy or loose ride, this replaces them.
