KYB 335610 Suspension Strut - Front Right

KYB Excel-G Front Right Strut

The KYB Excel-G 335610 is a front right suspension strut for select 2010-2012 Ford Taurus and 2010-2012 Lincoln MKS models. Built to restore original ride control and handling, it is a direct OE-style replacement for drivers who want factory-correct suspension response.

As part of the KYB Excel-G line, this strut is calibrated to return the vehicle’s designed steering response, stability, and body control. It is made on KYB OE assembly lines and uses OE-quality components for a replacement that follows the original suspension tuning.

Detailed Description

KYB Excel-G 335610 is engineered for the front right position on the Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS, with fitment for 2010-2012 models. This suspension strut is built to restore the vehicle’s original ride characteristics rather than change them, making it a practical choice for replacing worn OE suspension components. The Excel-G line is recognized as an Original Equipment for the Aftermarket solution because it follows the same manufacturing approach and quality standards used for KYB OE supply.

Cross-reference: this part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 72533 and 72762 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor damping response
• Loose steering feel during lane changes
• Reduced stability over bumps and uneven pavement
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn suspension control
• Suspension noise or handling changes from a worn front right strut

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2010-2012 Ford Taurus, front right. Fits 2010-2012 Lincoln MKS, front right. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Verify alignment after installation, and inspect related suspension components for wear before reassembly. KYB recommends protecting the new strut with KYB strut boot SB101.

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 strut body and bracket design are built to reduce flex and help maintain correct alignment under driving load.
