Keep your ride settled and controlled with the KYB Excel-G Shock Absorber 349243, a nitrogen gas-charged replacement for the rear right position. This KYB shock absorber drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2013-2015 Hyundai Sonata, 2014-2016 Kia Optima and 2010-2015 Hyundai Tucson — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
Part of KYB's Excel-G line, this gas shock is built on the same KYB assembly lines and with the same quality components used for its original-equipment units, and it is calibrated to help restore the designed control and handling of your Hyundai or Kia rather than change it — earning the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: the core of the Excel-G construction.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to correctly manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
- #1 recommended OE replacement for Asian cars: a preferred choice among professional technicians.
Signs a shock may be worn include excessive bouncing, nose dive under braking, reduced control on lane changes, or fluid seeping from the body. If a failed rear right shock is the cause, this KYB gas shock absorber replaces it. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
