Description

Help restore the original ride control, stability, and handling of your 1995-1998 Mazda Protege with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 333185. It drops in as a rear left gas strut for the listed application, calibrated to bring back the vehicle's designed performance rather than change it — the reason KYB classifies the Excel-G as OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket).

Nitrogen gas-charged twin-tube design: made on the same KYB OE assembly lines using the same OE-quality components as KYB's global OEM products, and a preferred choice of professional technicians.
Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to correctly manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
Strong, thick strut body and bracket: among the thickest in the industry to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment.
Triple lip fluid seal: designed to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out. Made in USA.

KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5405) to reduce the chance of noise and vibration, and protecting your new struts from dirt, debris, and salt with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB118).
