Bring the rear of your Nissan Frontier back to its designed ride with the KYB Excel-G gas shock absorber (P/N 344429). This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube shock is a direct-fit rear replacement for the 1998-2004 Nissan Frontier — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the specific engine applications. Classified OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket), the Excel-G is calibrated to restore original, designed performance rather than change it.

  • Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: a KYB gas shock absorber built with the same OE-quality components KYB supplies to new-vehicle manufacturers.
  • Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
  • Thick strut bodies and brackets: KYB uses some of the strongest, thickest bodies and brackets in the industry to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment.
  • Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand-assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.

KYB designs the Excel-G to help restore the control, handling and stability of your Nissan Frontier and to help keep electronic safety systems performing as intended. Worn rear shocks may show up as excessive bounce, nose-dive under braking, or poor body control over bumps — if the rear shocks are the cause, this replaces them. Shocks work as a pair; replace both sides together for balanced ride control.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the KYB 344429 shock absorber fit?

It is a rear-position gas shock absorber for the 1998-2004 Nissan Frontier. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact engine and configuration for your vehicle.

Is this a front or rear shock?

This KYB Excel-G is cataloged as a rear shock absorber for the listed Nissan Frontier applications.

What type of shock is the KYB Excel-G?

It is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas shock absorber built on KYB's OE assembly lines with OE-quality components, classified OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket).

Do I need to replace both rear shocks?

It is sold individually. Shocks work as a pair, so replacing both rear sides together is recommended for balanced, even ride control.

What are signs my rear shocks need replacing?

Excessive bounce, nose-dive under braking, or poor body control over bumps can signal worn shocks. Diagnose the cause first; if the rear shocks are at fault, this replaces them.
