KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:344438
Restore the control, stability, and handling your truck was designed with using the KYB Excel-G shock absorber 344465, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas shock that installs in the front position. It's a direct-fit, OE-replacement for the 2004-2012 Chevrolet Colorado, 2004-2012 GMC Canyon, 2006 Isuzu i-350, and 2007 Isuzu i-370 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. Built on the same KYB OE assembly lines as the company's OEM products, the Excel-G earns KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification: it's calibrated to help restore original designed performance, not change it.
Shocks wear gradually, so KYB recommends replacing them as a matched pair for even, balanced ride control; this listing is for one shock. To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB also recommends installing new mounts, part number SM5413. Signs your shocks may need replacing include excessive bouncing, nose-dive under braking, or reduced stability during lane changes.
