What does OEA classification mean for the KYB Excel-G shock?

OEA stands for Original Equipment for the Aftermarket. It signifies that the KYB Excel-G shocks are made on the same OE assembly lines with the same quality components as the shocks originally installed on your vehicle, ensuring they restore designed performance.

Why is a strong strut body important?

A strong and thick strut body, like the one found in the KYB Excel-G, minimizes flex. This is important because it helps maintain correct wheel alignment under all driving conditions, contributing to stable handling.

Does this shock absorber come with all necessary hardware for installation?

The manufacturer's description does not specify if installation hardware is included with this shock absorber. It is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions or consult with a technician to determine if additional hardware is needed.
