KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:3440137
Smooth out a worn ride with the KYB shock absorber 344261, a nitrogen gas-charged Excel-G unit for the FRONT of the 1993-1997 and 1999-2003 Volkswagen EuroVan. Part of KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) line, this KYB gas shock absorber Excel-G is calibrated to help restore the designed control, stability, and handling of your Volkswagen rather than change it.
As a KYB-recommended OEM replacement, the Excel-G also helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed, since those systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires working as the vehicle manufacturer intended. Sold individually; for even, balanced handling it is best practice to replace both front units as a matched pair. Check the KYB gas shock absorber price and confirm your application in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
