Shock Absorbers - Front - KYB - 344203

The product description indicates this is a pair of 2 front shock absorbers.

These shock absorbers are designed for specific Toyota vehicles and are compatible with OEM references 4851126240 and 4851126460. Always use a make/model compatibility tool or consult with us to confirm fitment for your vehicle.

The Excel-G series from KYB is designed to be a direct OE replacement, offering performance and durability that matches or exceeds original equipment standards.

Signs of worn shock absorbers include excessive bouncing, nose-diving during braking, poor handling on curves, visible leaks, or a feeling of instability. If you notice any of these, it's time to inspect them.

While basic installation might be possible for experienced DIYers, replacing shock absorbers often requires specialized tools like spring compressors and a torque wrench. For safety and proper installation, professional installation by a mechanic is recommended.

Gas pressure shock absorbers, like these KYB Excel-G models, use nitrogen gas to help prevent fluid aeration and foaming. This results in more consistent damping performance, especially under heavy use or at higher temperatures, compared to standard hydraulic shocks.

This could indicate worn-out shock absorbers. Ensure the KYB 344203s are correctly installed and compatible with your vehicle. If issues persist, consult a mechanic.

Check that all mounting bolts are securely tightened to the correct torque specifications. Also, ensure no other suspension components are loose.

Fluid leaks indicate a seal failure. The shock absorber should be replaced immediately to prevent further damage and ensure safe operation.

Worn shock absorbers can contribute to uneven tire wear. Inspect the shock absorbers and consider replacing them if they are old or damaged. Also, check wheel alignment.
