Review on KYB 343460 Excel-G Gas Shock Absorber, Black/Silver by Ricky Pee

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent shock absorber but top bushings missing internally

Good quality shock absorbers. Looks almost identical to the OEM but feels like it surpasses the original. After 110,000 miles my Civic had to be replaced because the rear suspension felt springy, especially when carrying rear passengers. My OEM has not expired but has lost its original performance. One thing everyone should know when shocks ARE NOT SUPPLIED WITH TOP BUSHINGS! Monroe shocks will do. I don't know why it's not there, but what you see in the picture is exactly what you get. Luckily my originals were still in great condition to complete the install but will be replaced soon. Next time I'll look for another shock manufacturer that includes a full package of hardware and/or bushings so I don't waste time.

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • Available in white only
