What is the OEA classification?

OEA stands for Original Equipment for the Aftermarket. It means this shock absorber is made on the same KYB OE assembly lines using the same quality components as parts installed on new vehicles.

What else should I consider replacing with this shock?

KYB recommends installing new strut mounts, part number SM5610, at the same time as the shock absorber. This helps reduce the chance of noise and vibration.

Does this shock change the way my car handles?

No, the KYB Excel-G shock is designed to restore your vehicle's original handling and ride capabilities, not to alter them.

Product Details

The KYB Excel-G front right shock absorber is built to bring your 2013 or 2014 Chevrolet Malibu back to its original factory ride and handling. KYB makes parts for new car manufacturers, and these Excel-G shocks are assembled on the same lines using the same quality components as original equipment. This means they're calibrated to restore your Malibu's original performance, not to change it, earning them the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.

This is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube shock absorber. It's designed to help restore your vehicle's ride control, stability, stopping distance, and lane change responsiveness. Because these shocks are designed to bring your car back to its original capabilities, they are a popular choice for professional technicians looking to perform a straightforward replacement.

When you're replacing your shocks, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts at the same time to help reduce the chance of noise and vibration. You can find the recommended strut mount, part number SM5610, on our site.
