KYB Suspension Strut P/N:335044
Bring back the factory ride and control of your 2006-2008 Subaru Forester with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 334469, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube unit cataloged for the front left position. Excel-G is built on the same KYB OE assembly lines using the same OE-quality components and is calibrated to restore the vehicle's original, designed performance rather than change it — the classification KYB calls OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket).
Because electronic safety systems depend on suspension, brakes, and tires operating as intended, the Excel-G helps keep those systems performing as designed. Protect your new strut from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB103. Made in USA.
