Bring back the controlled, stable ride of your 2009-2014 Nissan Cube with the KYB Excel-G shock absorber (P/N 348074), a nitrogen gas-charged rear shock designed to restore the vehicle's original ride control, stability and handling rather than change it. As a KYB shock absorber built on the same OE assembly lines KYB supplies to new-vehicle manufacturers, the Excel-G earns its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification and is a preferred choice among professional technicians.
Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: uses the same quality components found in KYB's global OEM products.
Triple-lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves: calibrated to correctly manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
Supports electronic safety systems: helps keep the suspension performing as the vehicle manufacturer intended, since ESC and related systems depend on the suspension, brakes and tires working as designed.
Signs a rear shock may need replacing include a bouncy or floaty ride, excessive body movement over bumps, or fluid weeping from the shock body. Sold individually; shocks are best replaced as a matched pair on the same axle for even, balanced control.
