KYB 339344 Suspension Strut - Front

KYB Excel-G Front Suspension Strut

The KYB Excel-G 339344 is a front suspension strut built to restore original ride control, stability, and steering response on select Chrysler, Dodge, and Ram minivans. It is an OE-style replacement for drivers who want factory-correct handling on a Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan, or Ram C/V.

Key Features

• KYB recommended OEM replacement strut for minivans
• Restores designed control and handling for Town & Country and Grand Caravan applications
• Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube construction
• 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 type: 12x1.25

Product Details

KYB Excel-G is part of KYB’s OE-focused product line, built on the same assembly lines and with the same quality components used for original equipment supply. The 339344 is calibrated to return the suspension to its intended performance rather than alter ride characteristics, making it a practical choice for front suspension service on 2012-2017 Ram C/V, 2013-2016 Chrysler Town & Country, and 2013-2017 Dodge Grand Caravan applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 72780 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive front-end bounce or float
• Reduced steering response during lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping
• Body movement that affects braking stability
• Suspension performance loss on high-mileage minivans

Installation Notes

Quality Assurance

KYB supplies shocks and struts to new vehicle manufacturers, and Excel-G is built as an Original Equipment for the Aftermarket (OEA) replacement line. The design uses OE-quality components and application-specific damping calibration to support factory-style ride control and handling.
