Do I need to buy two of these struts?

While this is the front right strut, it's generally recommended to replace struts in pairs (left and right) to ensure balanced handling and consistent ride quality. Check your vehicle's service manual for specific recommendations.

What makes this strut different from the original?

This KYB Excel-G strut uses a monotube gas design, which can offer improved damping consistency and heat management compared to some original twin-tube struts. It's built to meet or exceed original equipment specifications.

Does this strut come with any mounting hardware?

This part includes the strut assembly itself. It's recommended to inspect your existing mounting hardware, such as nuts and bolts, during installation and replace any worn or damaged components as needed.

Product Details

When your 2017-2019 Kia Sportage EX or LX FWD starts to feel a bit bouncy or less stable on the road, it might be time to look at your front right strut. This KYB Excel-G gas strut is built to replace the original and help bring back that comfortable ride and responsive handling you expect. It's designed to work with the factory suspension setup, making it a straightforward replacement for a worn-out strut.

KYB uses a monotube design for these struts, which helps them manage heat better than twin-tube designs, especially during extended use. This means more consistent performance whether you're just running errands or taking a longer trip. The gas pressure inside also helps prevent foaming, keeping the damping effective. It's a well-built part that aims to get your Sportage handling and riding smoothly again.

This is the front right strut specifically. If you're replacing struts, it's often a good idea to replace them in pairs (left and right) to ensure balanced handling. Make sure to check your vehicle's specific requirements and consider replacing both sides at the same time for the best results.
