Product Details

KYB is known for supplying shocks and struts to new vehicle manufacturers, and their Excel-G line is built on the same assembly lines using the same quality components. This front right shock absorber is specifically calibrated to bring your 1996-1998 Acura TL back to its original handling and stability. It’s designed to restore your vehicle's original capabilities, focusing on critical aspects like ride control, stopping power, and lane change responsiveness.

The Excel-G shock features a twin-tube design and is nitrogen gas-charged, incorporating all the quality components found in KYB's original equipment for global OEMs. This approach earns it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification, meaning it's built to perform exactly as the factory intended. Professional technicians often choose this shock because it reliably restores the vehicle's designed performance without altering it.

To help protect your new shock from dirt, debris, and road salt, consider adding a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB108.
