KYB Suspension Strut P/N:341311
KYB 340013 rear left suspension strut assembly for the 2008-2009 Ford Taurus and other vehicles helps restore the designed ride control and handling. It replaces a worn strut on the rear left.
Oil on the strut body, a bouncy ride or a clunk over bumps can mean the strut is worn. A loose sway bar link, tired control arm bushings or a tire problem can be behind some of those signs too, so find the cause before buying a replacement.
It fits the 2008-2009 Ford Taurus and the 2008-2009 Mercury Sable, and each takes one strut at the rear left. This listing is one strut; the rear right is a separate part, and the two are normally replaced together on that axle. The Excel-G line is classified OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket).
