KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:551105
KYB 341619 front shock absorber for the 2003-2009 Chevrolet C5500 Kodiak and other vehicles damps spring movement to keep the tires in contact with the road. The Excel-G line is aimed at heavy-duty trucks and commercial vehicles and is calibrated to restore designed performance, not change it.
Oil film on the shock body, extra bounce or a loose feel in steering can point to a worn front shock. These signs alone do not prove the shock is the problem; a worn tire can give a similar feel. Replace the two front shocks together, since this listing is one shock.
The vehicles it fits include the 2003-2009 Chevrolet C5500 Kodiak, the 1997-2009 Chevrolet C6500 Kodiak and the 1997-2009 Chevrolet C7500 Kodiak, and each takes two. Open the "Vehicles it fits" section to check your exact model and engine.
