Detailed Description
KYB Excel-G is part of KYB’s Excel-G line, a product range focused on restoring original suspension performance rather than altering it. For the Toyota Prius, part number 333360 is engineered as a front right suspension strut with a compressed length of 13.16 inches, an extended length of 19.07 inches, and a stroke length of 5.91 inches. The upper mount thread specification is 14X1.50, and the unit includes an R-stop.
As an OE replacement choice for the 2001-2003 Toyota Prius, front right, this strut is built to help maintain proper tire contact, lane-change response, braking stability, and body control. It also supports the suspension’s role in keeping electronic safety systems operating as the vehicle manufacturer intended.
What It Helps Address
- Excessive bounce or reduced damping control
- Loose steering feel or delayed response
- Uneven tire contact during braking and cornering
- Suspension noise caused by worn strut internals
- Alignment drift from flexing or weakened strut components
Installation Notes
