With more than 60 years of experience designing and manufacturing steering components for OE customers, KYB says this extensive experience has enhanced the development and quality of the KYB aftermarket range.
Steering and suspension components have a long-standing partnership given both product groups are generally integrated to work cohesively with each other.
KYB explains that its Steering components are developed and tested to OE specification as a minimum – ensuring any part you purchase matches OE quality or better.
Every detail is engineered for superior durability and simple installation, and all components are subjected to advanced quality testing methods prior to production.
These tests include:
• Hardness Control
• Material Load
• Ball Pin Strength
• Rotational Torque Testing
• Link Rod Pull
Within the Australian aftermarket, KYB initially introduced four Steering categories: Ball Joints, Tie Rod Ends, Rack Ends, and Stabilizer Links.
Since their release, KYB reports these product groups have earned significant popularity within the aftermarket, with each range continuously expanded to meet the demands of KYB’s valued customers.
In April 2024, KYB released to the Australian aftermarket a range of Control Arms.
“Designed to withstand substantial stress and impact, KYB Control Arms are meticulously manufactured to ensure unparalleled quality and longevity,” KYB Group Product Manager, Larry Coulthard, said.
“KYB has perfected the art of suspension technology with each control arm undergoing rigorous durability testing to meet exacting standard. That means reliability you can trust.
“Each KYB Control Arm has laser-etched branding for easy traceability, features electrophoretic deposition plating for corrosion prevention, and includes natural rubber bushings to ensure supreme control and comfort.”
KYB says its Control Arms’ exceptional performance and reliability is backed with a new market leading warranty statement of six-years or 150,000km, which applies to all KYB Steering and Suspension automotive products (excluding heavy commercial shock absorbers).
“Just as it is with our suspension components, our process rings true with KYB Steering Components,” Larry said.
“Perfect fit first time, every time. KYB has been steering you in the right direction for over 60 years. Elevate your driving experience with KYB – where precision meets excellence.”
