Keep steering response, stability, and handling true to the way your van was engineered with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 334322, a front-left gas strut that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2002 Mercury Villager and 1999-2002 Nissan Quest. KYB is a world-leading supplier of shocks and struts to new-vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G is built 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.
- Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: includes every quality component found in KYB's global OEM products and is a preferred choice among professional technicians.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Strong, thick strut body and brackets: minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment in all conditions.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand-assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
The Excel-G helps restore the designed control and handling of your vehicle and helps keep electronic safety systems performing as intended. KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5326) and protecting your struts with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB101). Made in the USA.
