FAQ
What is the KYB3440212?The KYB3440212 is an Excel-G rear shock absorber built for the Toyota Camry AWD. It uses OE spec valving in a gas charged twin tube design to restore factory ride comfort without altering ride height.
Will this fit a front wheel drive Camry?No, this shock is built specifically for the AWD rear suspension geometry and won't fit front wheel drive models.
Do I need to replace both rear shocks together?It's sold individually, but KYB recommends replacing both sides at once for even handling.
Is this a straightforward DIY install?Yes, it bolts into the factory mounting points using standard hand tools, no special equipment needed.
Will this change my ride height?No, it's designed to maintain factory ride height, not raise or lower the car.
Does it come with a warranty?Yes, KYB backs it with their standard limited warranty against manufacturing defects.
How do I know if my Camry has the AWD rear suspension?Check your build sheet or door jamb sticker for AWD designation, since the rear suspension geometry differs from FWD Camry models.
Will I need an alignment after installing this?An alignment isn't typically required for a rear shock swap since it doesn't affect toe or camber settings, but it's good practice to have it checked.
