Product Details

KYB Excel-G is built on the same OE assembly lines used for KYB original equipment products and uses OE-quality components to return the suspension to its designed performance. The 340055 part number is engineered for the Acura TL front left application and is a practical choice when the goal is to restore ride control, lane-change response, braking stability, and handling without changing the vehicle’s original suspension character. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 72694 for the same application.

Common Suspension Issues This Strut Can Address

• Excessive bounce or poor damping after the original strut wears out
• Reduced steering response during lane changes or cornering
• Uneven tire contact caused by weak suspension control
• Body movement that feels loose over bumps or rough pavement
• Suspension performance concerns that can affect electronic safety system operation

Installation Notes

Fits 2009-2014 Acura TL, front left. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Verify upper mount thread size and mounting orientation before installation. Because this is a vehicle-specific strut, proper alignment should be checked after service.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier, and Excel-G is classified as an Original Equipment for the Aftermarket replacement line. The 340055 is assembled with OE-quality components and calibrated to restore designed suspension performance for Acura TL applications.
