Restore the designed control and handling of your full-size Ford truck with the KYB Excel-G Rear Shock Absorber 344375, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube shock built to bring back the vehicle's original ride control, stability, stopping, lane-change response, and handling. It's a KYB-recommended OEM-replacement shock that fits the 1997-2003 Ford F-150 and the 2004 Ford F-150 Heritage. Made on the same KYB OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components, the Excel-G is calibrated to restore designed performance rather than change it — earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification and making it a preferred choice among professional technicians.
- Twin-tube, nitrogen gas-charged design: includes every quality component found in KYB's global OEM products.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves: manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Supports electronic safety systems: helps keep them performing as designed by maintaining intended suspension behavior.
Shocks work as a pair on an axle; replacing both rear units together is recommended for balanced, even ride control. Sold individually — this listing is for one shock.
