Product Description

The KYB 349069 Excel-G Rear Shock is a vehicle-specific upgrade designed for the 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK/JK Unlimited 3.6 L V6 4WD platform. It restores the original ride comfort, handling precision and stability that may have been diminished due to worn or fatigued factory shocks. With its nitrogen-gas charged twin-tube construction and OE-calibrated valving, this shock brings back the controlled feel and confidence of the factory setup.

Installation is straightforward - bolt into the factory rear mounting points without modifications. This shock is ideal for Wrangler owners running stock ride height who want to maintain proper rear axle suspension dynamics, whether for daily driving, mild off-road use or general replacement of worn components.

For optimal performance, replace both rear shocks as a matched pair and inspect associated suspension components such as springs, mounts and bushings. While fitment is confirmed through 2018 for the JK platform, coverage beyond 2018 is unconfirmed at time of listing.
