Original equipment KYB shock and struts are designed to the OE manufacture’s specifications. Although built on the same assembly lines, the aftermarket KYB products are calibrated to compensate for worn suspension components to help restore the vehicle’s original handling and control capabilities.
KYB aftermarket also offers monotube shocks which for most vehicles will provide additional control and handling capabilities.
