Product Details

KYB Excel-G is built on the same OE assembly lines KYB uses for original equipment supply, with OE-quality components and calibration focused on restoring factory performance rather than changing it. For front suspension service on the Dodge Dakota and Mitsubishi Raider, part number 340019 provides an OE-style strut solution that supports proper damping, body motion control, and steering feel. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 71100) for the same application.

Compatible With 2008-2009 Dodge Dakota, front; 2008-2009 Mitsubishi Raider, front; 2005-2007 Dodge Dakota, front; 2006-2007 Mitsubishi Raider, front. The KYB Excel-G 340019 is a practical choice when replacing a worn front suspension strut on a Dodge Dakota or Mitsubishi Raider and restoring factory-like ride behavior.

What It Helps Address

  • Excessive front-end bounce or oscillation
  • Loose or delayed steering response
  • Nose dive during braking
  • Uneven tire contact from worn damping control
  • Clunking or instability caused by a fatigued front strut

Installation Notes

Install according to the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions. For 2008-2009 Dodge Dakota and 2008-2009 Mitsubishi Raider applications, replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly as directed by the service procedure. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5510, to reduce noise and vibration, and a KYB strut boot, part number SB103, to help protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier of shocks and struts, and Excel-G is produced with OE-quality components and OE-style calibration to restore original vehicle performance. Part number 340019 is engineered for front suspension service on the listed Dodge Dakota and Mitsubishi Raider applications.
