Detailed Description

The KYB Excel-G brand line is engineered as an OE-style replacement for drivers who want the Nissan Altima to respond the way it was originally tuned. This strut is made on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and calibrated damping, making it a practical choice for restoring ride control on 1993-2001 Nissan Altima front left applications. Part number 235608 is also cross-referenced with Monroe Shocks & Struts 71675 for the same application.

For vehicles with electronic safety systems, maintaining suspension performance matters because braking and stability systems depend on proper tire contact and chassis control. KYB’s Excel-G design supports that factory behavior without adding a firmer or altered ride profile.

What This Strut Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing after bumps
• Loose or delayed steering response
• Nose dive during braking
• Body roll and instability in lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn suspension damping

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1993-2001 Nissan Altima, front left. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5218, to reduce noise and vibration. A KYB strut boot, part number SB101, helps protect the strut from dirt, debris, and road salt.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier, and the Excel-G line is produced on the same assembly lines used for original equipment applications. The part number 235608 is built with OE-quality components and application-specific damping calibration for consistent replacement performance on Nissan Altima front left fitments.
