Dial in your own ride control with the KYB AGX Damping Rate Adjustable Suspension Strut (P/N 741066), a rear strut that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2001 Honda CR-V. This AGX unit is manually adjustable, so enthusiasts can tune individual corner damping rates without special tools, as often as they like — one simple adjustment raises both rebound and compression damping together.
- Adjustable damping: Can be adjusted to add up to 125% more damping force on your Honda CR-V, using either an eight-position knob or a four-position screwdriver slot depending on the vehicle application — both offer the same capability.
- Externally adjustable: Set it without lifting the vehicle or removing the tires.
- Velocity-sensitive valving: Precision multi-stage hydraulic valves react to driving conditions for a broad performance range, on the street or the track.
- Built to last: A seamless working cylinder matched with a Teflon-coated piston band provides a positive seal and longer life; engineered to help vehicles with electronic safety systems (ESC, ABS, etc.).
To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5516), and you can protect your new struts from dirt, debris and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB108).
