KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:KG4549
Bring composed, controlled ride quality back to your GM sedan with the KYB Excel-G Shock and Mount Assembly SA1001, a nitrogen gas-charged replacement for the rear right corner. It installs on the 2010-2016 Buick LaCrosse, 2011-2017 Buick Regal, 2014-2020 Chevrolet Impala, 2013-2015 Chevrolet Malibu, and 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications.
KYB engineers the Excel-G to restore a vehicle's originally designed ride control, stability, and handling rather than change it — earning it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification. It's built on the same KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and calibrated to match designed performance.
Worn shocks can show up as excess body movement, reduced stability, or a bouncy ride. Made in the USA.
What position does the SA1001 fit?
It's the rear right shock and mount assembly for the listed GM applications. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm fitment for your vehicle.
What design does the KYB Excel-G use?
It's a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design that includes the same quality components found in KYB's global OEM products, with a triple-lip fluid seal.
Which vehicles does it fit?
The 2010-2016 Buick LaCrosse, 2011-2017 Buick Regal, 2014-2020 Chevrolet Impala, 2013-2015 Chevrolet Malibu, and 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited.
Is this a direct OEM replacement?
Yes, KYB classifies the Excel-G as OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket), built on the same OE assembly lines and calibrated to restore designed performance.
Should I replace shocks in pairs?
This listing is for one assembly. Replacing shocks as a matched pair across the axle is recommended for balanced, even ride control.
