KYB Shocks & Struts Excel-G Rear Right FORD Escort 1997-03 MERCURY Tracer 1997-99

This KYB Excel-G rear right shock absorber is built using the same OE quality components and assembly lines that KYB uses for new vehicle manufacturers. It's designed to bring your 1997-2003 Ford Escort or 1997-1999 Mercury Tracer back to its original factory ride control and handling capabilities. The goal here isn't to change how your car drives, but to bring it back to how it felt when it was new.

The Excel-G uses a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design. This construction helps prevent foaming and aeration of the fluid inside the shock, which means more consistent damping performance, especially under demanding conditions. Because it's calibrated to match your vehicle's original specifications, it helps restore critical functions like stability, responsiveness during lane changes, and overall handling without altering the intended feel of the car. Professional technicians often choose KYB because they know these shocks will perform as expected right out of the box.

To help protect your new shock from dirt, road debris, and salt, consider adding a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB104, to your order.
