Description

Bring back factory-calibrated ride control with the KYB Excel-G Shock Absorber 344269, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas shock built to restore the original, designed damping of your vehicle. This KYB shock absorber is a direct-fit REAR replacement for the 1991-2001 Ford Explorer, 2001-2003 Ford Explorer Sport, 2001-2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, 1991-1994 Mazda Navajo, and 1997-2001 Mercury Mountaineer — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment.

KYB is a world-leading supplier of shocks and struts to new-vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G is made on the same OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components — earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.

Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: calibrated to restore the vehicle's original, designed performance, not change it.
Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves: manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
OEM replacement shock for SUVs and Crossovers: helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed.

As an Excel-G unit, this is the same KYB gas shock absorber preferred by professional technicians.

What does the triple-lip fluid seal do?
