Restore controlled, confident handling with the KYB shock absorber 344467, a rear Excel-G nitrogen gas-charged shock that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and 2004-2007 Mercury Monterey. It is KYB's recommended OEM-style replacement for these minivans, designed to help restore the vehicle's original control and handling rather than change it.
- Excel-G (OEA) design: a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube unit built on the same KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and calibrated to restore the originally designed performance — earning the Original Equipment for the Aftermarket classification.
- Triple lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand-assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
- Supports electronic safety systems: because those systems depend on the suspension, brakes and tires operating as intended, this shock helps keep them performing as designed.
This is a rear-position gas shock absorber. Shocks are sold individually; replacing both rear units together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride control. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details for your vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles does the KYB gas shock absorber 344467 fit?
It is a direct-fit rear shock for the 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and 2004-2007 Mercury Monterey. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your specific vehicle.
Is this a KYB Excel G shock absorber?
Yes. The 344467 is a KYB Excel-G, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design classified as OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket), built on KYB's OE assembly lines with OE-quality components.
Is this a front or rear shock?
This is a rear-position gas shock absorber for the listed applications.
Do I need to replace both shocks at once?
Shocks are sold individually, so this listing is for one unit. Replacing both rear shocks together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced, even ride control.
What signs suggest my shock may need replacing?
Excessive bouncing, reduced stability during lane changes or braking, nose dive, or visible oil leakage can be signs. Diagnose the cause first; if a worn rear shock is the issue, this replaces it.
