Product Details

The KYB Excel-G line is built on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and calibration focused on restoring factory performance rather than changing it. For Subaru Outback front right suspension service, part number 339224 is designed to bring back controlled ride behavior, lane-change response, and braking stability. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 72686) for the same application.

Common Problems This Strut Can Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor damping at the front right corner
• Loose steering feel or delayed response during lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn strut control
• Noise or fluid loss associated with aging suspension components
• Reduced stability during braking and cornering

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2010-2012 Subaru Outback, front right. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Verify upper mount thread size 12x1.25 and confirm compressed length, extended length, and stroke length before installation. Inspect related suspension components and consider a KYB strut boot, part number SB103, to help protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt.
