KYB Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:344356
Quiet a bouncy ride and help restore stable handling with the KYB Excel-G shock absorber (P/N 344496), a rear-position gas shock that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This is a KYB gas shock absorber built to KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) standard, calibrated to restore the vehicle's originally designed control and handling rather than change it.
Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: the Excel-G is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube unit made on the same KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components.
Triple lip fluid seal: a triple lip fluid seal is used to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand-assembled, vehicle-specific damping valves are designed to manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
OEA replacement: a KYB-recommended OEM replacement shock for SUVs and crossovers, intended to help keep electronic safety systems performing as designed.
Shocks wear as a set, so replacing both rear units together as a matched pair is best practice for even, balanced ride control. This listing is for one shock. If worn dampers are the cause of your bouncing, nose-dive or poor body control, this Excel-G replaces the original.
