Product Details

KYB Excel-G is KYB’s OEA line, meaning it is calibrated to restore the vehicle’s original suspension behavior rather than alter it. The SA1010 rear shock absorber is manufactured on KYB OE assembly lines and uses the same quality standards found in KYB original equipment products. For a Honda Civic rear shock replacement, this part is a direct-fit service component focused on ride control, stability, and predictable handling.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Excessive bouncing after bumps
  • Loose or unsettled rear-end handling
  • Reduced braking stability
  • Delayed response during lane changes
  • Uneven ride control from worn rear shock components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear fitment on the 2016-2021 Honda Civic before installation and compare mount style, compressed length, and extended length to the original unit. Inspect surrounding suspension components, fasteners, and mounting points for wear before replacing the shock and mount assembly. Confirm the upper and lower mount types match the vehicle’s original configuration.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE shock and strut supplier, and the Excel-G line is built to OE-style performance standards for restoring factory ride characteristics. Part number SA1010 is engineered for consistent rear suspension control on the Honda Civic.
