KYB 3440217 Excel-G Nitrogen Gas-Charged Twin-Tube Shock / Strut

The KYB 3440217 Excel-G is a premium nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube shock or strut designed to restore your vehicle's original handling, ride comfort, and control. Earned the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification, the Excel-G is built on the same KYB OEM assembly lines using the same OE-quality components — calibrated to bring back factory performance, not alter it.

Key Features:

• Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design for consistent, fade-resistant damping performance
• Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves built in a pressurized clean room to eliminate contamination and ensure precise fluid control
• Ultra-smooth triple-chrome-plated piston rod reduces seal wear and extends service life
• Multi-lip synthetic oil seal engineered to keep hydraulic fluid in and contaminants out
• Seamless, extruded steel inner cylinder tubing with a Teflon-banded piston for a positive, leak-resistant seal
• Strong, thick strut body and brackets with a sintered-iron rod guide to minimize flex and maintain correct wheel alignment
• Direct OE replacement — no modifications required for installation
• Lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects

The KYB Excel-G is the trusted choice of professional technicians for restoring ride quality on cars, trucks, SUVs, and CUVs with high mileage or worn suspension components. It delivers the stability, stopping response, and lane-change control your vehicle was originally designed to provide.
