Restore the designed control and handling of your Scion xB with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 339204, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube damping unit that mounts in the front right position. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2008-2015 Scion xB (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail), calibrated to help return the suspension to its original, designed performance rather than change it — the philosophy behind KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Twin-tube gas design: A nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube build made on the same KYB OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components, calibrated to restore original ride control, stability, stopping, lane-change response and handling.
- Vehicle-specific valving: Hand-assembled, in-house damping valves manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
- Rigid strut body: KYB's thick strut bodies and brackets minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: Reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
Made in USA. The Excel-G is designed to help keep Electronic Safety Systems performing as intended, and is a #1 recommended Original Equipment replacement choice for Asian cars.
