What is the OEA classification?

OEA stands for Original Equipment for the Aftermarket. It means this shock is built using the same OE quality components and assembly lines as the shocks originally installed on your Acura Legend from the factory.

Does this shock change the ride quality?

No, the KYB Excel-G shock is specifically calibrated to restore your vehicle's original designed performance and handling, rather than alter it.

What is the purpose of a strut boot?

A strut boot, like the KYB SB107, protects the shock absorber from dirt, debris, and road salt. This protection helps maintain the shock's performance and can extend its service life.

Product Details

This product is a KYB Excel-G rear shock absorber for your 1987-1990 Acura Legend. Its main job is to bring back the original handling, stability, and responsiveness that your car had when it was new. Restoring your vehicle's ride control is critical for safe and predictable driving, especially during braking and lane changes.

KYB builds these shocks on the same assembly lines and with the same quality components used for original equipment (OE) parts supplied to car manufacturers. They are calibrated to match your Legend's original factory specifications, not to alter the ride. This means you get back the precise feel and performance your car was designed with, earning it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification. It's a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design, a popular choice among professional technicians for its reliability.

While this shock is designed to restore original performance, consider adding a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB107) to protect it from dirt, debris, and road salt, helping to extend its service life.
