      Product Information

      KYB

      The Excel-G shocks and struts maintain the vehicle’s handling, stability, ride control, stopping, lane change, and responsiveness. The shocks and struts are designed to bring back the original feel of the vehicle. KYB is a renowned worldwide supplier of shocks and struts to the manufacturers of a new vehicle. Excel-G is also made on the same assembly lines of KYB OE and uses the same OE quality components and is calibrated to only restore the originally designed performance, not change it. It has helped Excel-G earned OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification. The KYB Excel-G has a twin-tube design and is charged with nitrogen gas. It is an inclusive OEM quality component and is most-preferred by technicians. Excel-G shock absorbers are the most well-known KYB series worldwide. It is one of the best shock absorbers to bring back the original handling and control of the vehicle. Carefully designed Excel-G shock absorbers compensate for wear in other suspension parts and also provide better control and comfort compared to other OE units. KYB manufactures Twin-tube gas shock absorbers, struts, and cartridges for all passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. Engineered and incorporated with advanced 3 stage compression, rebound valving, and pressurized nitrogen gas, Excel-G shock absorbers and struts provide great comfort ride and intensely reduces aeration and foaming that leads to suspension fade. Furthermore, the advanced damping design of Excel-G delivers exceptional road control and wonderful handling response and also compensates for wear in other parts of the suspension.

      KYBs are the real deal and they last. I've been refurbishing Subarus for resale, and these shocks offer great value for money.

          Subie Strut - Good Quality, Easy Navigation

          The product arrived as expected and the strut seems to be of good quality. Installation went smoothly. The website was easy to navigate. My only concern was the strut post protruding from the box, which could've caused damage, but luckily it didn't. Will shop here again.
              Yes, I recommend this product.

                      These struts are amazing! I've clocked about 1,600 kilometers on them so far. Roads that used to make my car bounce like a pogo stick are now a pleasure to drive. The car's handling is transformed – sharp steering, crisp braking response, and no more waiting for the car to settle after bumps. Installing the rear struts was a breeze for me (on my '97 Legacy L wagon), way easier than the fronts since the spring compressors were a tight fit. Update: As of 67,600 kilometers later, still loving these struts.

                          These are fantastic! I've put about 1,600 kilometers on them so far. Roads that used to be a nightmare to drive on because my car would bounce all over the place after bumps are now a pleasure. The car handles so much better with these installed - steering and braking are sharp and responsive - I don't have to wait for the car to settle after hitting bumps. I found the rear struts easier to install on my '97 Legacy L wagon because the front springs were too cramped to fit the spring compressors easily. UPDATE 8/26/17: Still in love with these struts, even after 67,592 kilometers.

                              Just slapped some new Michelin Pilot Sport A/S+ tires on the ride, and while they gripped the road alright, that was about it. Felt like a spry young thing in fancy kicks strapped to old, creaky legs. But after I put in these KYB GR-2 struts, my car's got its groove back – it's like night and day. It's responsive and a blast to drive now. Never realized how worn the old ones were – they degraded so slowly. Even though they weren't obviously busted, they were toast. Pulled them out and could move the piston with just my fingers.
                                  Yes, I recommend this product.
                                  It's like my car got a new lease on life with these struts

                                  After slapping on some new Michelin Pilot Sport A/S+ tires, I realized the tires weren't the problem – it was the struts. The KYB GR-2 struts I put in made my car responsive and a blast to drive. I never noticed how worn the old ones were; they weren't leaking, just old. But after taking them out, I could easily move the piston with my fingers, which was definitely not right.
