Restore the settled ride and steady handling of your compact with the KYB Excel-G Rear Suspension Strut (MPN 232027). It installs as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 1989-1991 Chevrolet Sprint, 1989-1995 Geo Metro, 1989-1991 Pontiac Firefly, and 1989-1994 Suzuki Swift — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut is built on the same KYB OE assembly lines with OE-quality components, calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed damping rather than change it.

  • 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 strut body and brackets: minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment in varied conditions.
  • Supports electronic safety systems: helps keep them performing as designed by restoring intended suspension behavior.

KYB recommends fitting new strut mounts (part number SM5189) and protecting the strut with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB101). Signs a rear strut may need replacing include excessive bounce over bumps, nose-dive or sway, uneven tire wear, or fluid seepage on the strut body. Replace rear struts as a matched pair for balanced ride control.
