Product Details

KYB Excel-G 340094 is engineered as a rear suspension strut for 2011-2013 Dodge Avenger, rear; 2011 Chrysler 200, rear; and 2009-2010 Chrysler Sebring, rear. It uses an upper mount type of 10X1.25 and a lower mount type of E2(12X46), with no dust cover, internal rebound spring, or B-stop included. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 71126 for the same application.

As part of the Excel-G product line, this strut is aimed at restoring factory ride control on Chrysler and Dodge rear suspension systems. If you are replacing a worn rear strut on a Chrysler 200, Chrysler Sebring, or Dodge Avenger, KYB 340094 provides an OE-style service solution that matches the original design intent.

Common Problems This Strut Addresses

• Excessive bouncing or poor rebound control from a worn rear strut
• Reduced stability during braking, cornering, or lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by weak damping control
• Noisy or loose-feeling rear suspension behavior from worn components
• Alignment drift caused by flex in aging strut assemblies

Installation Notes

Install according to the manufacturer’s instructions and replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly as specified for the vehicle. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5678, to reduce noise and vibration, and a KYB strut boot, part number SB107, to help protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt.

After installation, verify rear suspension alignment and confirm that all fasteners are torqued to specification. Because this is a rear strut for Chrysler and Dodge applications, proper assembly and setup are important for restoring factory ride characteristics.

KYB is a major OE supplier, and the Excel-G line is manufactured on the same KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components. The design focus of KYB 340094 is restoring original performance for the rear suspension on Chrysler and Dodge vehicles, including the Chrysler 200, Chrysler Sebring, and Dodge Avenger.
