Keep ride control, stability, and steering response working as designed with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut (P/N 3357500), a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube unit for the front right position. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2013 Ford C-MAX and 2012-2013 Ford Focus. KYB calibrates the Excel-G to restore a vehicle's original, designed damping performance rather than change it — earning it the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Gas-charged twin-tube design: built with the same OE-quality components KYB supplies to its global OEM products.
- Triple lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong strut body and bracket: built to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment.
Because electronic safety systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires working as intended, this KYB-recommended OEM replacement strut helps keep them performing as designed. Protect your new strut from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB101.
