Help restore front ride control and handling on your 1990-1997 Mazda Miata with the KYB Excel-G Gas Strut 341143, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube front suspension strut. Calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed performance rather than change it, the Excel-G is built on KYB's OE assembly lines using OE-quality components — earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification and making it a preferred choice among professional technicians.
- Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: includes the same quality components found in KYB's global OEM products.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves: designed to correctly manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong, thick strut bodies and brackets: help minimize flex to maintain correct alignment in varied conditions.
Because suspension, brakes, and tires must work as the manufacturer intended, the Excel-G helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed. To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5077), and you can protect your new struts from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB108).
