It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2013 Volvo C70 [All], and as a KYB-recommended OEM replacement it is calibrated to help restore the vehicle's original designed performance rather than change it.
- Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: the Excel-G construction includes the quality components found in KYB's global OEM products.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves: manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- OEA — Original Equipment for the Aftermarket: made on the same KYB OE assembly lines with OE-quality components, and designed to help keep electronic safety systems performing as intended.
It ships without a dust cover and without a bump stop, but includes an internal rebound bumper. Stroke length 8.86 in, compressed length 16.25 in, extended length 25.11 in. The listed application uses two, so this shock is sold individually — order two and replace both sides on the same axle together as a matched pair for balanced ride and handling.
