Rear Suspension Shock Absorber Assembly for 2019-2023 Kia Forte - KYB SA1026

Help bring back the controlled, stable ride your 2019-2023 Kia Forte left the factory with using the KYB Excel-G Shock and Mount Assembly (SA1026) — a complete rear shock absorber and mount unit that KYB recommends as the OEM replacement for this application. It's a direct-fit replacement for the listed application, and because Excel-G is built on the same KYB assembly lines as its OE dampers, it's calibrated to restore the vehicle's designed performance rather than change it — the classification KYB calls OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket).

• Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: the Excel-G construction is engineered to help restore original ride control, stability and handling.
• 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.
• Complete shock and mount assembly: ships as a rear shock with its mount, and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed since they depend on the suspension working as intended.

Made in the USA. Signs the original may need replacing include excessive bounce, a wandering or unsettled feel over bumps, reduced stability during lane changes, or fluid leaking from the shock body.
