Restore the designed ride control, stability, and handling of your Kia Spectra with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 333364, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas strut. It installs as a direct-fit replacement in the rear right position on the 2001-2004 KIA SPECTRA (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details). KYB built the Excel-G on the same OE assembly lines using the same OE-quality components, calibrated to restore original designed performance rather than change it — earning it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Triple lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to correctly manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong strut body and brackets: among the thickest in the industry to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment in all conditions.
- Supports electronic safety systems: helps keep them performing as designed by keeping the suspension operating as the manufacturer intended.
To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5481), and protecting your new strut from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB108).
