This front strut is engineered to restore the designed performance of the suspension on 1998-2004 Cadillac Seville and 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Aurora front applications. The KYB 339016 is a practical choice when the goal is to return the vehicle to factory-like ride control, lane-change response, and braking stability without altering the original suspension tuning. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks \u0026amp; Struts 71684 for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Helps Address\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcessive front-end bounce or float\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced steering response during lane changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven tire contact caused by worn damping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise or vibration from a fatigued front strut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoss of factory ride control on Cadillac Seville and Oldsmobile Aurora front suspension systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits 1998-2004 Cadillac Seville, front. Fits 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Aurora, front. For the Oldsmobile Aurora application, replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5276, to reduce the chance of noise and vibration. Verify electronic adjustable suspension equipment before installation on Seville models, since this application excludes that system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eKYB supplies shocks and struts to new vehicle manufacturers, and the Excel-G line is built to OE-quality standards on KYB production lines.
