Restore controlled ride and handling to the rear of your Lexus with the KYB Excel-G Rear Suspension Strut 341269, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube gas strut. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-2000 Lexus LS400 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details). Built on KYB's OE assembly lines with OE-quality components, the Excel-G is calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed performance rather than change it — earning KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
- Twin-tube gas design: nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube damper that includes the quality components found in KYB's global OEM products.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand-assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong strut body & brackets: among the thickest in the industry, minimizing flex to help maintain correct alignment.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
The Excel-G also helps keep electronic safety systems performing as designed, since they depend on the suspension, brakes, and tires. To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5177), and protecting the strut with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB104).
