What is the main purpose of the KYB Excel-G strut?

The primary goal of the KYB Excel-G strut is to restore your vehicle's original ride control, stability, and handling capabilities. It's designed to bring your car back to its factory-designed performance levels.

What does OEA classification mean for this strut?

OEA stands for Original Equipment for the Aftermarket. This means the strut is manufactured to the same OE quality standards and on the same assembly lines as the parts originally installed on your vehicle from the factory.

Do I need to purchase a strut boot separately?

While this strut is sold individually, it's recommended to protect it from dirt and debris. A KYB Strut Boot, part number SB103, is available separately to help extend the life of your new strut.

Product Details

This KYB Excel-G front left strut uses a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design, which helps maintain consistent performance and restore your Subaru Forester's original ride control. When your struts wear out, you might notice your car feels less stable, especially when braking or changing lanes. This strut is built to bring back that factory feel and responsiveness, making your Forester handle like it did when it was new.

KYB is a major supplier of original equipment shocks and struts to car manufacturers, and the Excel-G line is produced on the same assembly lines using the same quality components. This means the strut is calibrated to bring back your vehicle's designed performance, not to change it. It's essentially an Original Equipment for the Aftermarket (OEA) part, meaning it's built to the exact same standards as what came on your Forester from the factory. This makes it a solid option for bringing your vehicle's handling and stability back to its intended level.

To protect your new strut from dirt and debris, consider adding a KYB Strut Boot, part number SB103, to your order.
