KYB Suspension Strut P/N:341281

Keep the rear ride settled and the tires planted with the KYB Excel-G Gas Strut 341281, a rear-position replacement strut that installs as a direct-fit application on the 2000-2004 Hyundai Sonata, 2001 Hyundai XG300, 2002-2005 Hyundai XG350, 2001-2006 Kia Magentis, and 2001-2006 Kia Optima. KYB's Excel-G is built on the same assembly lines as its OE production, using the same OE-quality components and calibrated to restore the original designed damping — earning the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification. Worn struts can show up as bouncing, poor stability, longer stopping, and sloppy handling; if a failed rear strut is the cause, this replaces it.

• Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design: includes every quality component found in KYB's global OEM products, a preferred choice among professional technicians.
• Triple-lip fluid seal: reduces the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
• Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
• Strong, thick strut bodies and brackets: minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment.

KYB recommends protecting new struts with a KYB Strut Boot (SB101) and installing new strut mounts (SM5091) to reduce the chance of noise and vibration.
