Help restore the designed control and handling of your car with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 338107, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube damper that installs as a direct-fit replacement in the front-left position on the 2012-2017 Hyundai Accent and 2012-2017 Kia Rio. Calibrated on KYB's OE assembly lines to restore original, designed performance rather than change it, it earns the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification and is a preferred choice among professional technicians.
- Twin-tube, gas-charged design: nitrogen gas-charged construction that includes the same quality components found in KYB's global OEM products.
- Triple lip fluid seal: reduces 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 brackets: thick construction that minimizes flex to help maintain correct alignment.
KYB helps keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as designed, since those systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires operating as the manufacturer intended. To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5818), and you can protect your new struts from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB132).
