Quick facts

Part: KYB 344612 suspension strut assembly
Fits: 2003-2008 Toyota Corolla and other vehicles
Position: Rear
Condition: New

Fluid on the strut body, a bouncy ride over bumps or uneven rear tire wear can mean a strut is worn. These signs alone do not prove the strut is the problem, since worn tires can give a similar bumpy feel. The rear axle takes one strut on each side.

Fits

As a strut replacement for the 2003-2008 Toyota Corolla, it also fits the 2003-2008 Toyota Matrix and the 2003-2008 Pontiac Vibe. This listing is one strut for the rear axle, and the strut on the other side of that axle is normally replaced at the same time.
