KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:344447
If a worn shock is behind a soft, bouncy rear end, help restore composed handling with the KYB Excel-G shock absorber (P/N 349041) — a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas shock for the rear position. It fits many vehicles as a KYB-recommended OEM replacement, among them the 2008-2013 BMW 128i, 2008-2013 BMW 135i and 2007-2013 BMW 328i. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of applications.
Sold individually; replace both rear shocks together as a matched pair for balanced ride control.
