What is the main purpose of the KYB Excel-G shock absorber?

The primary goal of the KYB Excel-G shock absorber is to restore your vehicle's original ride control, stability, and handling capabilities. They are designed to bring your Sportage back to its factory-designed performance.

How does the twin-tube design benefit my ride?

The twin-tube design, combined with nitrogen gas charging, helps prevent fluid aeration and foaming. This ensures more consistent damping performance, especially during demanding driving conditions, and helps maintain control.

Does this shock absorber come with a protective boot?

This shock absorber does not include a strut boot. To protect your new shock from dirt, debris, and salt, you can purchase a KYB Strut Boot separately, part number SB108.

Product Details

When it's time to replace the worn-out shocks on your 1999-2002 Kia Sportage, you want to bring back that original feel and control. The KYB Excel-G front right shock absorber is built to do just that, helping to restore your vehicle's original handling, stability, and responsiveness. These shocks are made on the same assembly lines and use the same quality components as the ones originally installed on your Sportage from the factory.

KYB's Excel-G shocks use a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design. This construction helps ensure consistent performance and helps prevent the foaming that can happen with standard shocks under heavy use. They are calibrated to match your Sportage's original specifications, meaning you get back the ride and handling characteristics the vehicle was designed with, not something different. This makes them a popular choice for professional technicians looking to restore a vehicle's original capabilities.

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