Quick facts

Part: KYB 341327 suspension strut assembly
Fits: 2002-2005 Ford Explorer and other vehicles
Position: Rear
Condition: New

Oil running down the strut body, a bouncy or floating ride, or a clunk over bumps can mean a rear strut is worn. These signs alone do not prove the strut is the problem, since a worn sway bar link can cause a similar clunk. This listing is one strut, and both rear struts are normally replaced together.

Fits

This strut is a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer and the 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer. It is a recommended replacement strut for domestic SUVs and crossovers.
