KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:3440163
Dial in front-end ride control on your 2002-2008 Dodge Ram 1500 with the KYB Excel-G Gas Shock Absorber (P/N 344398) — a front-position, nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube shock designed to restore the vehicle's original designed damping rather than change it. KYB supplies shocks and struts to new-vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G is built on the same OE assembly lines using OE-quality components, earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
If worn front shocks are behind excessive bounce, nose-dive under braking, or a loose feel over bumps, this replaces them and helps restore the designed control and handling of the 2002-2008 Dodge Ram 1500. Refer to the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific fitment. Replacing both front shocks together is recommended for balanced ride control.
