KYB 339081 Suspension Strut - Front Left

KYB Excel-G Front Left Strut for Outlander

KYB Excel-G part number 339081 is a front left suspension strut for select Mitsubishi Outlander models. It is built to restore original ride control, steering response, and body movement characteristics for daily driving and electronic safety system performance.

Excel-G Product Line

The KYB Excel-G line is an OE-style replacement series built on KYB assembly lines using OE-quality components. This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design is calibrated to return the vehicle to its original damping behavior rather than change the suspension feel.

• Fits 2009-2013 Mitsubishi Outlander, front left, recommended OEM replacement for models with 3rd row seating
• Fits 2007-2011 Mitsubishi Outlander, front left, for suspension strut and coil spring assembly replacement per manufacturer instructions
• Triple-lip fluid seal helps reduce oil and gas leakage
• Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement
• Strong strut body and bracket design helps minimize flex and maintain alignment
• Internal rebound spring included; upper mount thread size: 12x1.25
• Made in USA

Detailed Description

KYB 339081 is engineered for Mitsubishi Outlander front left applications where restoring factory ride control matters. The Excel-G design uses OE-quality construction and calibrated damping to bring back the vehicle’s original handling balance, braking stability, lane-change response, and suspension control. With compressed length of 15.72 inches, extended length of 20.88 inches, and 5.16 inches of stroke, this strut is built to match the specified suspension travel for the listed applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 72438 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bounce or float after bumps
• Reduced steering precision during lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping
• Suspension noise or instability from a worn front left strut
• Loss of factory ride control on Mitsubishi Outlander models

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2009-2013 Mitsubishi Outlander, front left, and 2007-2011 Mitsubishi Outlander, front left. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions when replacing the suspension strut and coil spring assembly. Inspect related suspension components, and consider a KYB strut boot, part number SB101, to help protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt.

Quality Assurance

KYB supplies shocks and struts to new vehicle manufacturers, and Excel-G is produced on the same OE assembly lines using OE-quality components. The design is intended to restore original performance characteristics for the listed Mitsubishi Outlander applications.
