KYB Suspension Strut P/N:339152
Restore the original ride control, stability, and handling of your full-size GM truck with the KYB Excel-G Gas Strut, MPN 341493. This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube front strut is designed to restore the vehicle's designed capabilities — ride comfort, stopping, lane-change responsiveness, and body control — not change them. Built on the same KYB OE assembly lines with the same OE-quality components, the Excel-G carries KYB's OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification. It fits the front position on the 2008-2014 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, 2008-2013 Escalade EXT, 2007-2013 Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, and 2007-2014 Chevrolet Suburban 1500, Tahoe, GMC Yukon and Yukon XL 1500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5530) and protecting the struts with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB129).

Is this a front strut?

Should I replace struts in pairs?
KYB struts are sold individually. For balanced ride and handling, it is best practice to replace both struts on the same axle together as a matched set.
Does anything else need to be replaced with the strut?
KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5530) to reduce noise and vibration, plus a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB129) to protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt.
