Help restore your vehicle's designed ride control with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 3340199, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut cataloged for the front-left position. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2012-2017 Hyundai Azera, 2013-2015 Hyundai Sonata, 2014-2016 Kia Cadenza, and 2012-2016 Kia Optima — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. KYB builds the Excel-G on the same OE assembly lines using the same OE-quality components, calibrated to restore the vehicle's designed performance rather than change it — earning it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Twin-tube, gas-charged design: nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube construction that includes the quality components found in KYB's global OEM products.
- Vehicle-specific damping: hand-assembled, vehicle-specific damping valves are designed to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong strut body: thick strut bodies and brackets help minimize flex to maintain correct alignment.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5777) to reduce the chance of noise and vibration, and protecting the strut with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB116).
