KYB Shocks & Struts Excel-G Front Left 16-19 Mazda CX-3

When you're looking to bring your 2016-2021 Mazda CX-3 back to its original driving feel, the KYB Excel-G front left shock absorber is a solid choice. This part is built to restore your vehicle's original ride control, stability, and handling capabilities, making it feel like it did when it first rolled off the lot. KYB is a major supplier to car manufacturers, and the Excel-G line is produced on the same assembly lines using the same quality components as original equipment.

This twin-tube, nitrogen gas-charged shock absorber is calibrated specifically to match your Mazda CX-3's original factory settings. It's not designed to change the ride, but rather to bring it back to its intended performance. This makes it a popular choice for professional technicians who need to ensure a reliable restoration of the vehicle's original handling and stopping responsiveness.

For the best results and to help prevent noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts at the same time. You can find the recommended strut mount, part number SM5884, to complete the job.
