Settle a bouncy, wandering ride and bring rear damping back to how the factory intended with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 234005, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube unit for the REAR position. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1984-1987 Pontiac Fiero. KYB is a world-leading supplier of shocks and struts to new-vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G is built on the same OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components, calibrated to restore original designed performance rather than change it — the classification KYB calls OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket).
- Twin-tube gas design: nitrogen gas-charged construction that includes every quality component KYB's global OEM products use.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: designed to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific valving: hand-assembled, in-house damping valves manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
- Strong strut body: thick strut bodies and brackets help minimize flex to maintain correct alignment.
The Excel-G helps restore the designed control and handling of your Fiero, and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed. Protect your new struts from dirt, debris and salt with a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB103.
