Product Details

The KYB Excel-G line is engineered as an Original Equipment for the Aftermarket solution, using the same assembly-line approach and quality components found in KYB OE production. For drivers searching for a rear right strut for 2005-2010 Kia Sportage or 2005-2009 Hyundai Tucson, KYB 334504 is built to restore factory-like damping rather than alter the vehicle’s ride character. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 72221 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing after bumps
• Loose or delayed rear suspension control
• Reduced lane-change stability
