KYB Shocks & Struts Excel-G Front Left 13-15 Chevrolet Malibu

The KYB Excel-G front left shock absorber for your 2013-2015 Chevrolet Malibu is built using a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design, mirroring the construction of original equipment parts. Its primary job is to bring back your Malibu's original ride control, stability, and handling capabilities, rather than altering them. This means you get back the predictable feel and responsiveness your car had when it was new.

KYB is a major supplier of shocks and struts to car manufacturers, and the Excel-G line is produced on the same assembly lines using the same quality components. This shock is calibrated to precisely match your Malibu's original factory specifications, ensuring it restores the designed performance. It's a popular choice among professional technicians because it reliably brings back the vehicle's original handling characteristics.

When installing this shock, KYB recommends replacing the strut mount (part number SM5610) to help reduce the chance of noise and vibration. This ensures a quieter and more comfortable ride after the installation.
