Restore the designed ride control, stability, and handling of your Acura RL with the KYB Excel-G Front Suspension Strut 340056. This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut is built to restore the vehicle's original, designed performance rather than change it — earning KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification. It drops in as a direct-fit front replacement for the 2005-2012 Acura RL.
- Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: made on the same KYB OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components and calibrated to restore original performance.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to correctly manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong, thick strut bodies and brackets: minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment in all conditions.
KYB is a world-leading supplier of shocks and struts to new-vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G is the #1 recommended OE replacement choice for Asian cars. Because electronic safety systems depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires operating as intended, the Excel-G helps keep those systems performing as designed. Protect your new struts from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB108.
