Product Details
KYB Excel-G is the brand’s OE-focused product line for drivers who want factory-style suspension performance rather than a changed ride feel. This strut is calibrated to return the vehicle to its original damping behavior, using OE-quality components on KYB assembly lines. Part number 3340097 is a direct suspension service option for the front left position on 2015-2016 Honda CR-V models, and it cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 73046 for the same application.
With a compressed length of 12.4 inches, extended length of 18.44 inches, and stroke length of 6.04 inches, this KYB Excel-G strut is engineered for proper suspension travel and consistent control. The 12x1.25 upper mount thread specification and internal rebound spring support correct fitment and suspension response in the intended application.
Common Issues This Strut Can Address
- Excessive bounce after bumps or dips
- Loose or delayed steering response
- Reduced body control during lane changes
- Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping
- Suspension noise or instability from a worn front left strut
Installation Notes and Tips
Compatible with 2015-2016 Honda CR-V, front left. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Because this is a suspension strut service part, a professional alignment is recommended after installation to verify ride height, steering feel, and tire wear settings. Part number 3340097 should be matched to the vehicle’s exact position and application before installation.
Quality Assurance
KYB supplies shocks and struts to new vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G line is produced on the same OE assembly lines using OE-quality components. The design focuses on restoring original suspension performance and maintaining the vehicle systems that depend on proper suspension, brake, and tire operation.
