KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:344469
Settle the ride and keep the rear suspension working as designed with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Shock Absorber, MPN 3440021. This nitrogen gas-charged shock installs as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 2006-2010 Kia Magentis, 2006-2010 Kia Optima, and 2007-2012 Kia Rondo — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. KYB builds the Excel-G to restore a vehicle's original ride control, stability, and handling rather than change it.
Signs a rear shock may need replacing include excessive bounce, poor body control over bumps, or fluid leakage. Replace rear shocks as a matched pair for balanced ride control.
