KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:565078
Help restore the designed control and handling of your full-size GM truck with the KYB Excel-G shock absorber 344273, a rear gas shock built as a KYB-recommended OEM replacement. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1995-2000 Chevrolet Tahoe, 1995-1999 GMC Yukon and 1996-2007 Chevrolet Express 2500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
This is a rear-position unit calibrated to restore original, designed performance rather than change it, and KYB notes it helps keep electronic safety systems performing as intended. Signs a shock may need replacing include excessive bounce, body sway, and loose or wandering handling — if worn rear shocks are the cause, this Excel-G gas shock absorber replaces them.
