What is the main purpose of the KYB Excel-G shocks?

The main purpose of the KYB Excel-G shocks is to restore your vehicle's original ride control, stability, and handling capabilities. They are designed to bring the truck back to its factory-designed performance, not to alter it.

Are these shocks designed for performance upgrades or to restore original function?

These shocks are specifically designed to restore your vehicle's original capabilities. They are built using the same quality components and calibrations that KYB supplies to new vehicle manufacturers for their original equipment.

What is recommended to protect the new front shocks?

To protect your new front shocks from dirt, debris, and salt, KYB recommends using a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB103. This accessory helps maintain the shock's performance and longevity.

Product Details

When your Dodge Dakota's suspension starts to feel a bit worn out, especially after years of service, it's time to think about restoring its original handling and stability. The KYB Excel-G front shocks are built to bring back that factory-fresh feel, focusing on critical aspects like ride control, stopping power, and how the truck responds when you change lanes or corner. These aren't designed to make your truck perform like a race car; they're made to put it back to the way it felt when it first rolled off the assembly line.

KYB is a major supplier to car manufacturers for their original equipment, and the Excel-G line is produced on the same assembly lines using the same quality parts. This means they're calibrated specifically to match your Dakota's original design specifications. They use a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube construction, a design trusted by professional technicians for its reliability and performance in bringing back that original ride quality and control.

To keep these new shocks protected from road grime and debris, consider adding a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB103. This helps ensure they perform well for a long time.
