Description

Smooth out a truck's ride and help restore its designed control with the KYB Excel-G Gas Shock, a rear KYB shock absorber (MPN 344401) engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2008 Dodge Ram 1500, the 2003-2010 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500, the 2011-2013 Ram 2500, and the 2011-2012 Ram 3500. Classified OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket), this KYB gas shock absorber is calibrated to bring back the vehicle's original ride control, stability, and handling rather than change it.

Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: the Excel-G is built on KYB's OE assembly lines using OE-quality components to restore designed performance.
Triple lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to help manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
Supports safety systems: helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the manufacturer intended, since they depend on suspension, brakes, and tires working together.

If worn rear shocks are behind a bouncy, loose-feeling ride, this KYB gas shock absorber Excel-G is a recommended OEM replacement. Replacing shocks as an axle pair is best practice for balanced ride control; sold individually.
