It installs as a rear-position direct-fit replacement for the 2016-2024 Chevrolet Express 2500, 2016-2024 Chevrolet Express 3500, 2016-2024 GMC Savana 2500, and 2016-2024 GMC Savana 3500. KYB's Excel-G line is built on the same assembly lines as its OE products and is calibrated to bring back original, designed performance rather than change it, earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Twin-tube gas design: nitrogen gas-charged and built with the same quality components used in KYB's global OEM shocks.
- Triple lip fluid seal: designed to reduce 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.
- Strong strut bodies and brackets: designed to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment in all conditions.
By helping restore designed control and handling, the Excel-G also helps keep electronic safety systems performing as intended, since they depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires working as the manufacturer designed. A KYB-recommended OEM replacement shock.
