KYB Suspension Strut P/N:334230
$104.99

Keep the back end planted and control body motion with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 334230, a rear gas strut built to restore your vehicle's designed ride control, stability, and handling. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-1998 Chevrolet Malibu and 1997-1998 Oldsmobile Cutlass (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment).

The Excel-G is KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) line, made on the same KYB OE assembly lines with OE-quality components and calibrated to restore original performance rather than change it.

  • Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design that includes the same quality components found in KYB's global OEM products.
  • Triple-lip fluid seal to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
  • Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves that manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
  • Thick strut bodies and brackets that minimize flex to help maintain correct alignment.

KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5145) and protecting your struts with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB101). Struts wear in pairs, so replacing both sides together is the best practice for balanced ride control.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the KYB 334230 strut fit?

It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-1998 Chevrolet Malibu and 1997-1998 Oldsmobile Cutlass. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm engine-level fitment for your vehicle.

Is this a front or rear strut?

The 334230 is cataloged as a rear-position suspension strut.

What is the Excel-G design?

It's a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut that uses the same OE-quality components KYB puts in its global OEM products, calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed performance.

Should I replace both struts at once?

Struts wear over time, so replacing both sides together is the recommended best practice for balanced, even ride control. Each unit is sold individually.

Are strut mounts included?

No. KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5145) and a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB101) to reduce noise, vibration, and protect the new struts.
