KYB Shocks & Struts Excel-G Rear BUICK Century 1982-96 BUICK Skylark 1980-85 CHEVROLET Celebrity 198

When your car starts to feel a bit floaty or less stable on the road, it's often a sign that the shock absorbers have seen better days. Restoring your vehicle's original ride control, stability, and handling is critical, and that's exactly what the KYB Excel-G rear shock absorber is built to do. This shock is designed to bring back that factory-fresh feel to a wide variety of vehicles, including popular models like the Buick Century, Chevrolet Celebrity, and Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera.

KYB is a major supplier of shocks and struts to new car manufacturers, and the Excel-G line is produced on the same assembly lines using the same quality components. This means the shock is calibrated to match your vehicle's original design specifications, not to change them. It's a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design that includes all the quality parts you'd expect from an original equipment part, earning it the classification of OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket). This makes it a popular choice for professional technicians looking to restore a vehicle's original performance.

When you're replacing your shocks, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts at the same time, like their part number SM5010, to help reduce the chance of noise and vibration down the road.
