    Help restore rear ride control on your Volvo with the KYB shock absorber, part number 344270 — a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube Excel-G unit for the rear position. It fits many vehicles as a direct-fit replacement, among them the 1991-1995 Volvo 940, 1992-1994 Volvo 960 and 1985-1992 Volvo 740; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list. KYB builds the Excel-G on its OE assembly lines to restore the vehicle's original designed damping, earning it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.

    • Twin-tube, gas-charged design: a nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube KYB gas shock absorber built to Excel-G specifications.
    • Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand-assembled in-house valving manages tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
    • Triple lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
    • Supports the vehicle's systems: helps keep the suspension performing as the manufacturer intended, which electronic safety systems depend on.

    Worn shocks can show up as excessive bounce, nose-dive under braking, or loose handling over bumps — signs this rear shock may need replacing. Replacing both rear shocks together as a pair is recommended for balanced, even damping; this listing is for one shock.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is this a KYB Excel-G shock absorber?

    Yes. Part 344270 is a KYB Excel-G, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas shock built on KYB's OE assembly lines and classified OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket).

    What position does this shock fit?

    It is cataloged for the rear position on the listed Volvo applications. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm fitment for your specific vehicle.

    Which vehicles does part 344270 fit?

    Should I replace both rear shocks at once?

    Excessive bounce, nose-dive under braking, or loose, unsettled handling over bumps can indicate worn shocks. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
