What is this part?
It's a KYB Excel-G rear suspension strut, MPN 334228 — a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut designed as an OEM replacement to restore the vehicle's original ride control and handling.
Which vehicles does it fit?
It fits eight GM models including the Buick Allure, Century, LaCrosse and Regal, Chevrolet Impala and Monte Carlo, Oldsmobile Intrigue, and Pontiac Grand Prix. See the Buyer's Guide tab for exact year ranges.
Does one listing cover both sides?
No. This strut is sold individually. KYB and most technicians recommend replacing both rear struts together as a pair for balanced, even ride control.
Should I replace the strut mounts too?
KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part numbers SM5398 & SM5399) to help reduce the chance of noise and vibration, and adding a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB128) for protection.
What are signs a strut may need replacing?
Common signs include excessive bouncing, nose dive or body sway, reduced stability, uneven tire wear, or fluid leaking from the strut. Have the suspension diagnosed to confirm the cause.
