About KYB

KYB is the largest hydraulic manufacturer in Japan and one of the world's largest suppliers of original (equipment OE) shock absorbers to vehicle manufacturers. Over 1 million shock absorbers are manufactured every week from KYB factories across the world, with many vehicles leaving production lines worldwide fitted with KYB as standard.

KYB aftermarket shock absorbers are manufactured using the same factories and technology as for OE. Years of hydraulic expertise have helped KYB to become an industry leader not only in shock absorber production but integrated automobile control systems and suspension module production and development.

Why Should I Choose KYB When Replacing my Shock Absorbers and Struts?

Established from 90 years of original equipment experience and expertise, KYB can design and manufacture products that deliver the best handling and ride quality for every vehicle. KYB suspension products are vehicle specific, making each part ideal for its corresponding make and model. In addition, KYB considers the specific factors that each unique vehicle demands, for example: vehicle type, intended use, level of comfort and performance.

All KYB products comply with the global ISO standards of manufacturing, adhering to stringent procedures and processes with high levels of repeatability and quality control.

KYB SHOCK ABSORBERS

The best choice to replace your MacPherson Strut to ensure comfort and a steady ride. Our patented valving and the use of pressurised nitrogen gas in the Excel-G range will restore riding comfort and, at the same time, dramatically reduce the aeration or foaming that commonly occurs in other shock absorbers.

Outstanding features include:

• Multi-lip oil seal extends life.
• Teflon coated bushing reduces wear.
• Hard chromed piston rod reduces friction.
• Pressurized nitrogen gas reduces foaming and aeration dramatically for better performance.
• Rebound cushion prolongs life.
• All-weather fluid.
• Wear resistant piston ring reduces leakage.
• Compression valve self-adjusts for fast recovery.

KYB Strut Mount

The upper strut mount supports are one of the key elements within the suspension assembly, as they provide a link between the shock absorber and the body of the car. Made of quality materials on modern equipment, the KYB upper strut mount supports improve handling and comfort when driving on any road.

The Role Of Suspension Mounting Kits

• Improves the link between the shock absorber and the chassis.
• Increases the life of the shock absorber and all suspension components.
• Improves handling and control.

FAQ-FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION

1.WHEN REPLACING A WORN SHOCK ABSORBER SHOULD I REPLACE THE PAIR OR JUST THE FAULTY INDIVIDUAL ITEM?

• To ensure the vehicle performs safely and as designed, we recommend replacing struts and shock absorbers as parallel pairs (Left & Right).
• When the damping rates are significantly different from side to side the vehicle body and wheel movement variations cancause handling abnormalities.
• For this reason, replacing both left and right struts and shock absorbers for either the front or rear suspension position, will maintain optimal dampening control symmetry, resulting in an even and balanced drive.

2. WHEN REPLACING WORN STRUTS, SHOULD OTHER SUSPENSION PARTS BE REPLACED?

• Yes, it is a good idea to inspect and replace worn strut mounts, bump stops and protection boots when replacing struts.
• Replacing struts in a vehicle can be very time intensive as it requires the entire strut to be removed and disassembled. The strut mount optimises suspension performance by providing a smooth steering response and reducing vibration. Bump stops safeguard the strut from bottom-out damage, and protection boots provide protection to the struts piston rod from road debris (e.g. dirt, dust, salt and stones).
