About the Excel-G Line

KYB Excel-G is built on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and calibration focused on restoring factory-designed performance rather than changing it. For the Honda Pilot, part number 339362 is an OE-style replacement choice for maintaining ride control, lane-change responsiveness, and braking stability. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 72648) for the same application.

Common Problems This Strut Can Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor damping from a worn front strut
• Loose steering feel or delayed response during lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by reduced suspension control
• Noisy or unstable front-end behavior from a fatigued strut assembly
• Loss of original ride height control and body motion management

Installation Notes and Tips

Install according to the manufacturer’s instructions for the 2009-2015 Honda Pilot, front left position. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly as directed by the vehicle manufacturer. KYB recommends new strut mount SM5730 to reduce noise and vibration, and strut boot SB102 to help protect the unit from dirt, debris, and salt.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier, and Excel-G is classified as an Original Equipment for the Aftermarket replacement line. The design uses OE-quality components and factory-style damping calibration to help keep suspension, braking, and electronic safety systems operating as intended. Part number 339362 is built to the same standards used on KYB OEM production lines.
