Kayaba - the largest supplier of OE shock absorbers in the world - has launched its new European shock absorber catalogue for 2005.

The glossy 356 page brochure has full details of all KYB branded shock absorbers, protection and suspension mounting kits. The user friendly catalogue lists applications from over 70 manufacturers alphabetically, and includes applications for cars, car derived vans (CDVs) and light commercial vehicles (LCVs).

The catalogue features Kayaba's complete range of oil and gas shock absorbers including Premium, Excel G, Gas-a-Just and Ultra SR. The catalogue also contains a full colour page of photographs and useful information about AGX - Kayaba's fully adjustable shock absorber - which allows the damping force to be adjusted without lifting the vehicle or the need for special tools.

There are over 200 new references for 2005 including the BMW 3 series cabriolet, Citroën Xsara Estate, Peugeot 607, Toyota Lexus and new Vauxhall/Opel Vectra.

Kayaba has expanded its European reach with extensive new facilities including recently acquiring 100% ownership of AP Amortiguadores SA (APA) in Spain - the key production base in Europe.

The company is now at the top of the OE sales table in Europe, and its position as a global manufacturer has also been strengthened with the construction underway of a factory at Pardubice in the Czech Republic and the establishment of a new company - KYB Manufacturing Czech, s.r.o (KMCZ).
