KYB Suspension Strut Cartridge P/N:365037
Restore front ride control on your 1992-1995 BMW 525I with the KYB Excel-G strut cartridge P/N 365083. This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas cartridge is a KYB-recommended OEM-replacement unit designed to help restore the vehicle's original, engineered damping — not change it — which earned the Excel-G line its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: built to restore the designed control, stability, and handling of your BMW.
Triple-lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand-assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
Strong strut body: KYB uses heavy strut bodies and brackets to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment.
To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5053), and protecting your struts from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB112). Sold individually; order two for a complete front-axle replacement and replace both sides together for balanced ride and handling.
Fitment: 1992-1995 BMW 525I. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail.
Interchange: G44493 · 73311
