## Questions & Answers

**Q: Could these be installed on a Toyota Sienna 7 passenger van used to tow a camper, because you want the extra support normally for 8 passengers?**
A: yes these are excellent shocks I have new struts on the front and kyb in the back the van has 204000 mi on it and rides like new

**Q: Is there any quantifiable difference between these 344480's and the 344308's? I have a 7 seater Sienna, but I haul a lot of weight.**
A: The only difference is the length. The 344480 is 27.12" extended / 17.24" collapsed, the 344308 is 26.18" extended / 16.41" collapsed. Both fit a Sienna rear, but it depends on the year model and whether it's AWD or FWD. They have the same mountings, too.

**Q: Are there any other parts required? I would be willing to buy new boots and bushings too.**
A: No other parts are required! It has a new mounting bushing pressed into the bottom and new hardware/bushings to install on the top. This shock is not meant to have a boot for standard installation. One possibly could be added, if desired.

**Q: Will this fit ok in 2012 Sienna xle 8 passengers with no mobility access package ? please answer soon**
A: Shock Warehouse says the KYB344480 excel-g gas shocks fit 2012  Toyota Sienna 7 passenger without mobility  auto access, they do not say anything about 8 passenger. M Toyota is a kneel van with auto mobility access.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Contacted KYB support for missing hardware
*by I***D on April 26, 2025*

I bought the same KYB344480 shock absorbers 8 years and 70000 miles ago for an '08 Sienna. I'm now (04/25) starting to detect a chirping from those and some slight hint of abnormal tire wear, so time to refresh. I'm happy enough with the previous pair to buy the same.Last time I bought these, the shocks came with all the washers and rubber parts shown. This time all I received was the top nut. So I contacted KYB customer support via their chat and they sent me the missing hardware (see pic). Maybe I could have re-used the washers etc. from last time -- they looked ok.I would not have said the old ones felt worn, but there is a noticeable improvement in the ride.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fits 2006 Sienna 8 seats perfectly.
*by C***N on May 22, 2016*

Thanks to all the reviewers above for really useful information. I got these and got them done for my 2006 Sienna LE today. Some of the lessons I learned that might be helpful for others:1. Definitely no need to take the tires off.I got the tip from the other reviewer, i.e no need to take the tire off. There is enough room to work under the minivan. There is really nothing blocking the work.2. Dry run with all your wrenches before actually taking things off.This is to make sure that you have the right tools before taking bolts off, so there is no need to put thing back together and run to shops to get right ones. :-) The most difficult part is to get the bolts on the lower end off, I probably would get an impact wrench had I known how hard it is. All the penetration oil I put over last three days did not get anywhere, based on what I see after I finally got the bolts off.3. The original plastic boots and top nuts are all fine to reuse, I did not use any of the small parts from the package except the shock itself.It took me about an hour and half to get everything done. Ride is clearly better, the original one on the driver side is completely shot. Quotes I got for install them mostly around $500, not bad that all can be done with $100 in parts + 90 minute time.Downside is that I need replace the front struts next.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super helpful strap
*by K***L on September 23, 2023*

Ty KYB for shipping this with an easy to cut & remove strap. I was able to do this install almost with one arm once I realized that the strap could help prevent me needing to compress the strut for install. Also, I didn't end up using the included bushings, washers or nuts. The original fittings and dust boot were still in good shape so I just reused them. Idk if not including them would have saved me/KYB some $, but it's a thought. Great fit!
