Product Details

KYB Excel-G is KYB’s OE replacement line for drivers who want the suspension to perform as the manufacturer intended. Part number 334268 is calibrated for the Mitsubishi Eclipse front left position and uses OE-quality components assembled on KYB production lines. The result is a strut that focuses on restoring ride control, lane-change response, braking stability, and handling consistency on the road.

This part number 334268 is also a practical choice when replacing a worn front strut on a Mitsubishi Eclipse, especially when the vehicle shows uneven damping or reduced control over bumps and turns. KYB’s Excel-G design is commonly selected by professional technicians for original-feel suspension service.

What It Helps Address

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

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2000-2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse, front left. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5388, to reduce noise and vibration. A KYB strut boot, part number SB103, helps protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier, and the Excel-G line is built on the same assembly lines used for original equipment production. The 334268 is engineered to restore designed suspension performance for the Mitsubishi Eclipse front left application.
