KYB 3410075 Suspension Strut - Rear

KYB Excel-G Rear Suspension Strut

KYB Excel-G part number 3410075 is a rear suspension strut built to restore original ride control, stability, and steering response. It is a direct OE-style replacement for select Dodge Caliber, Jeep Compass, and Jeep Patriot applications, with calibration focused on factory handling characteristics rather than changing the vehicle’s feel.

Key Features

• KYB recommended OEM replacement strut for factory-style performance
• Restores designed control and handling for everyday driving
• Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube construction
• Triple-lip fluid seal helps reduce oil and gas leakage
• Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement
• Strong strut body and bracket design helps minimize flex and maintain alignment
• Electronic safety systems rely on suspension performance that matches the vehicle manufacturer’s intent
• Rear application with R-stop and OE-style mounting dimensions

Product Details

The KYB Excel-G line is engineered on the same KYB OE assembly lines used for original equipment supply, with OE-quality components and calibration aimed at restoring original performance. Part number 3410075 measures 12.28 inches compressed, 19.01 inches extended, and 6.73 inches of stroke, with lower mount type E2(12X47) and upper mount type S1(10MM). This rear strut is a practical choice for drivers seeking a factory-correct replacement on 2007-2012 Dodge Caliber, 2007-2010 Jeep Compass, and 2007-2010 Jeep Patriot rear suspension applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 72401) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor damping control
• Loose rear-end feel during lane changes and cornering
• Reduced braking stability caused by worn suspension damping
• Uneven tire contact and inconsistent road holding
• Noise or vibration associated with worn strut components

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2007-2012 Dodge Caliber, rear. Fits 2007-2010 Jeep Compass, rear. Fits 2007-2010 Jeep Patriot, rear. For reduced noise and vibration, KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5678. To help protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt, KYB recommends a strut boot, part number SB107. Verify rear application and mounting dimensions before installation, and inspect related suspension components for wear.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier of shocks and struts, and Excel-G is classified as Original Equipment for the Aftermarket (OEA) because it is built to restore original designed performance using OE-quality components and OE-line manufacturing processes.
