Product Details

KYB Excel-G is part of KYB’s OE replacement line focused on restoring factory ride characteristics rather than altering them. Part number 232031 uses the same type of construction and calibration approach found in KYB original equipment production, making it a practical choice for a Nissan Sentra rear right strut or Nissan NX rear right strut replacement. The design helps maintain proper suspension control, braking stability, lane-change response, and electronic safety system performance by keeping the suspension operating as the manufacturer intended.

Measured specifications include a compressed length of 14.88 inches, extended length of 22.56 inches, and stroke length of 7.68 inches. The upper mount thread size is 12x1.25. This part number 232031 is also listed as a direct interchange with Gabriel G55976.

Common Problems This Strut Can Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor damping after strut wear
• Loose or unstable handling during turns and lane changes
• Reduced braking stability caused by worn suspension control
• Uneven tire contact from weakened strut performance
• Noise or vibration associated with aging suspension components

Installation Notes

For the Nissan NX application, follow the manufacturer’s instructions and replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly as specified. KYB recommends replacing strut mounts, part number SM5154, to reduce noise and vibration, and using a strut boot, part number SB101, to help protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt. Verify rear right fitment and mounting dimensions before installation.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier, and Excel-G is produced on KYB’s OE assembly lines with OE-quality components. The line is engineered to restore original designed performance for select Nissan Sentra and Nissan NX applications.
