Review on KYB 343010 Excel G Gas Shock by Chad Rosier

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Seems OK for OEM replacement

I installed them on a '92 Volvo 240. They replaced 6 year old Bilstein touring shocks that ran about 50,000 miles and were the death of the rattle. The KYB shocks fit well and make for a smooth ride; in my opinion a bit softer than the Bilstein Touring material. If your goals are comfort and handling like the original model, this is your dampener. This particular shock is made in Thailand if that's something that matters to you.

Pros
  • Twin Pipe Technology for European cars
Cons
  • Update available
