KYB Suspension Strut P/N:340045
Keep your ride composed and your steering responsive with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 333183, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas strut for the front-left corner of the 1995-1998 Mazda Protege (see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level applications). Part of KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) line, the Excel-G is built on the same assembly lines and with the same OE-quality components KYB supplies to new-vehicle manufacturers, calibrated to help restore the vehicle's originally designed damping performance rather than change it.
Made in USA. KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5150) to reduce the chance of noise and vibration, and protecting the new strut with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB101).
