Restore the designed control and handling of your Toyota Prius with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 339242, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube unit that installs in the front right position. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2010-2015 Toyota Prius and the 2012-2015 Toyota Prius Plug-In, calibrated to bring back original, designed damping performance rather than change it.
- OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket): built on the same KYB OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components used in KYB's global OEM products.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: designed to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to help manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong strut body and bracket: KYB uses thick strut bodies and brackets to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment.
Because electronic safety systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires operating as intended, this strut helps keep those systems performing as designed. Made in USA. Pair it with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB112) to protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt. #1 recommended Original Equipment replacement choice for Asian cars.
