KYB Shocks & Struts Excel-G Front Left MAZDA Protege 1995-98

The twin-tube design of this KYB Excel-G front left shock absorber is built using the same quality components found in original equipment. For your 1995-1998 Mazda Protege, this shock is calibrated to bring back the vehicle's original handling, stability, and responsiveness, rather than altering it. It's made on the same assembly lines as parts for new vehicles, earning it the OEA classification, which stands for Original Equipment for the Aftermarket.

This nitrogen gas-charged shock absorber focuses on restoring your Protege's critical ride control capabilities. That means it helps ensure proper stopping distances, confident lane changes, and stable handling. Professional technicians often choose KYB Excel-G because it reliably brings back the feel and performance your car had when it was new.

To help protect your new shock from dirt, debris, and road salt, consider adding a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB101, which is sold separately.
