KYB 335032 Suspension Strut - Front Right

KYB Excel-G Front Right Strut

The KYB Excel-G 335032 is a front right suspension strut for select Nissan Pathfinder and INFINITI QX4 models. Built to restore original ride control, it is a practical OE-style replacement for drivers who want predictable handling, stable braking, and consistent lane-change response.

As part of the KYB Excel-G line, this strut is calibrated to return the vehicle to its designed damping characteristics rather than alter the ride. It is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design made on KYB OE assembly lines with OE-quality components.

Product Details

KYB Excel-G 335032 is built for import SUV applications where restoring factory ride behavior matters. The strut uses hand-assembled, in-house damping valves to control steering response, tire contact, and body movement, while the reinforced body and bracket design helps preserve alignment under load. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 71441) for the same application.

Common Problems This Strut Can Address

• Excessive front-end bounce or oscillation
• Loose or delayed steering response
• Nose dive during braking
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping
• Reduced stability during lane changes and cornering

Installation Notes

Install on the front right position only for the listed Nissan Pathfinder and INFINITI QX4 applications. KYB recommends replacing the strut mount, part number SM5329, to reduce noise and vibration, and using strut boot SB129 to help protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions and replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly as specified for the application.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier, and the Excel-G line is produced on the same assembly lines used for original equipment applications. The 335032 is engineered to restore designed suspension performance for the listed vehicles, including Nissan Pathfinder and INFINITI QX4 fitments.
