Product Details
The KYB Excel-G line is engineered to return the suspension to its original operating characteristics rather than change ride feel. Part number 235074 is made on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and calibrated damping for factory-style control. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 71603) for the same application.
What This Strut Helps Address
- Excessive rear suspension bounce or rebound
- Loose or delayed steering response during lane changes
- Reduced body control over bumps and uneven pavement
- Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping performance
- Suspension noise or handling changes from a worn rear left strut
Installation Notes
Compatible with 1993-1995 Subaru Impreza, rear left, and 1992-1994 Subaru Legacy, rear left. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions where required. Verify the upper mount thread specification and confirm suspension condition before installation. For added protection, KYB recommends strut boot SB102 to help shield the strut from dirt, debris, and road salt.
Quality Assurance
KYB is a major OE supplier, and the Excel-G line is built on the same production lines used for original equipment shocks and struts. The design uses OE-quality components and application-specific damping calibration to maintain factory-intended suspension performance.
