OE 31309813654 — Front Shock Absorber for Hyundai / Kia

Build-year coverage is listed row by row in the Applications table above. Where several generations share one number, the newer rows usually carry a revised suffix — compare the last four characters before buying, since a suffix change often means a different connector or bracket.

KingMay supplies OEM-grade aftermarket parts built to the 31309813654 factory specification: material grade, dimensional tolerance and surface finish follow the original tooling. They are not dealer-boxed genuine parts, and we quote them that way so there is no ambiguity at customs.

Report it with the order number and packing-list line plus photographs. Because every carton is photographed before loading, we can trace the batch immediately and settle the claim against the inspection record instead of arguing from memory.

Four variables explain most of the spread: material grade, whether the goods are new production or clearance stock, packing format, and whether the quote is ex-works or landed. Ask for the material certificate alongside the price — that is what makes a comparison like-for-like.

For a short distance at reduced load, usually yes — but the risk compounds. A degraded front shock absorber transfers stress to neighbouring components, so a small repair can grow into a full suspension, steering & brake rebuild. Book the replacement once the symptom is repeatable.

A supersession happens when the maker revises a front shock absorber and issues a new tail number. The revision normally changes a small physical detail rather than the fit. Where we know a supersession chain for 31309813654 we list the current reference; ask our desk for written confirmation before a large order.
