KYB Suspension Strut P/N:340098
Help restore the designed control and handling of your Subaru Forester with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 334191, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut for the REAR RIGHT position. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2002 Subaru Forester — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. Part of KYB's Excel-G line, it's built on the same OE assembly lines with OE-quality components and calibrated to bring back the vehicle's original, designed performance rather than change it, earning the OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
Because the suspension, brakes, and tires all work together, a healthy strut helps keep electronic safety systems performing as the manufacturer intended. To reduce the chance of noise and vibration, KYB recommends installing new strut mounts, part number SM5245. Made in USA.
