Get your handling and ride control back with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 333313, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube front-left strut that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-2002 Suzuki Esteem. Built on the same KYB OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components, the Excel-G is calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed performance rather than change it — earning it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Twin-tube, gas-charged design: a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube build that includes the quality components KYB puts in its global OEM products.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces 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 to help restore the designed control and handling of your Suzuki Esteem.
- Strong strut body and brackets: thick bodies and brackets minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment.
To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5487). Protect your new strut from dirt, debris and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB101). Sold individually; replacing struts in axle pairs is recommended for balanced ride and handling.
