KYB 3340000 Suspension Strut - Front Right

KYB Excel-G Front Right Strut for Cruze

The KYB Excel-G 3340000 is a front right suspension strut for 2011-2012 Chevrolet Cruze models. It is built to restore original ride control, stability, braking response, and lane-change handling for the Cruze platform.

As part of the KYB Excel-G line, this strut is calibrated to return the vehicle to its OE-designed damping characteristics rather than alter the ride. It is a recommended OEM replacement for drivers and technicians looking for a direct-fit suspension strut for the Chevrolet Cruze.

Product Details

The KYB Excel-G line is engineered for OE-style performance and is assembled on KYB production lines using OE-quality components. For the Chevrolet Cruze, part number 3340000 is designed to restore the suspension behavior the vehicle was built with, including ride control, body motion management, and steering feel. This makes it a practical choice for a front right strut replacement on 2011-2012 Cruze models.

Electronic safety systems rely on proper suspension, brake, and tire operation. By returning damping performance closer to factory specification, the KYB Excel-G 3340000 helps keep those systems operating as intended on the Chevrolet Cruze.

Common Problems This Strut Can Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor rebound control
• Loose or unstable front-end handling
• Longer stopping distances caused by worn suspension damping
• Reduced steering response during lane changes
• Uneven tire contact from weakened strut performance
