Restore the designed control and handling of your truck or SUV with the KYB Excel-G Shock Absorber (P/N 344268), a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube front shock built to bring back your vehicle's original ride and stability. This KYB shock absorber is a direct-fit replacement for the 1990 Ford Bronco II, 1991-1994 Ford Explorer, 1989-1997 Ford Ranger, 1994-1997 Mazda B2300, 1994-1997 Mazda B3000, 1994-1997 Mazda B4000, and 1991-1994 Mazda Navajo (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment).

  • OE-level engineering: The Excel-G is built on the same KYB OE assembly lines using the same OE-quality components, calibrated to restore original designed performance — earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
  • Twin-tube gas design: A nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube construction that KYB recommends as an OEM replacement shock.
  • Triple lip fluid seal: Reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out for consistent damping.
  • Vehicle-specific valving: Hand-assembled damping valves manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement, helping keep electronic safety systems performing as designed.

Worn shocks show up as excessive bounce, nose-dive under braking, poor lane-change response, or uneven tire wear. Shocks work as a pair per axle — replacing both front units together is recommended for balanced ride control. Sold individually; this listing is for one shock.

Is this a KYB gas shock absorber?

Yes. The KYB Excel-G 344268 is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design built on KYB's OE assembly lines to restore your vehicle's original ride control and handling.

What is the Excel-G OEA classification?

OEA stands for Original Equipment for the Aftermarket. The Excel-G uses the same OE-quality components as KYB's OEM products and is calibrated to restore original designed performance, not change it.

How do I know if my shocks need replacing?

Signs include excessive bouncing, nose-dive under braking, poor lane-change response, or uneven tire wear. Diagnose the cause before replacing, as these symptoms can have other sources.

Do I need to replace both front shocks?

Shocks work as a matched pair per axle, so replacing both front units together is recommended for balanced, even ride control. This listing is for one shock, sold individually.
