KYB 339718 Suspension Strut - Front Right

KYB Excel-G Front Right Strut for Volvo

KYB Excel-G strut 339718 is a front right suspension strut for select Volvo S80, XC70, and V70 applications. It is built to restore original ride control, steering response, and body stability while maintaining the vehicle’s designed suspension behavior.

Key Features

• KYB recommended OEM replacement strut
• Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design
• Vehicle-specific damping valves manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement
• Triple-lip fluid seal helps reduce oil and gas leakage
• Strong strut body and bracket design helps minimize flex and maintain alignment
• OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) calibration for original performance characteristics

Product Details

The KYB Excel-G line is engineered to restore the vehicle’s original ride control rather than change suspension feel. KYB manufactures Excel-G on OE assembly lines using OE-quality components, and the damping calibration is matched to factory performance targets. For Volvo owners looking for a front right suspension strut that supports stable braking, lane-change response, and consistent handling, part number 339718 is a direct-fit service option for the listed applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 72636) for the same application.

What This Strut Helps Address

• Excessive front-end bounce or oscillation
• Reduced steering precision during lane changes
• Nose dive under braking
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping control
• Loss of ride stability on Volvo S80, XC70, or V70 front right suspension service
