Product Details

KYB Excel-G is the brand’s OE replacement line, built on the same KYB assembly lines used for original equipment supply and calibrated to restore factory-designed handling rather than change it. The 3357500 is an OEA-classified suspension strut engineered for the front right side and is a strong fitment match for drivers searching for a 2012-2013 Ford Focus front right strut or a 2013-2018 Ford C-Max front right suspension strut. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 72522 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing after bumps
• Loose or delayed steering response
• Nose dive during braking
• Uneven tire contact and reduced road control
• Suspension wear that affects stability and electronic safety system performance

Installation Notes

Install on the front right position only. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions. Verify fitment by year, make, model, and position before installation. For added protection, KYB recommends a strut boot, part number SB101, to help keep dirt, debris, and salt away from the strut shaft.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a global OE supplier of shocks and struts, and Excel-G is manufactured using OE-quality components on KYB production lines. The design focuses on restoring original ride control and handling characteristics for Ford C-Max and Ford Focus applications.
