Product Details

KYB Excel-G is the brand’s OE replacement line for drivers who want factory-style suspension behavior rather than a changed ride feel. Part number 235073 is engineered on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components, and it is calibrated to restore the vehicle’s original control characteristics. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 71602) for the same application. For Subaru Impreza and Subaru Legacy rear right service, 235073 provides a direct replacement path that supports consistent handling and braking balance.

What This Strut Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing after bumps
• Reduced rear suspension control
• Loose or delayed steering response
• Uneven tire contact from worn damping
• Noise or fluid loss associated with aging struts

Installation Notes

Fits 1993-1995 Subaru Impreza, rear right, and 1992-1994 Subaru Legacy, rear right. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions where required. Verify rear-right application, mount thread size, and overall dimensions before installation. For added protection against dirt, debris, and road salt, KYB recommends strut boot SB102.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier, and Excel-G is built on the same production lines used for original equipment shock and strut manufacturing. The design uses OE-quality components and application-specific damping calibration to maintain factory-intended suspension performance.
