KYB 341050 Suspension Strut - Rear

KYB Excel-G Rear Suspension Strut

The KYB Excel-G 341050 is a rear suspension strut built to restore original ride control, stability, and handling response. It is a direct OE-style replacement for select Honda and Acura applications, including rear fitment on the Honda Civic and Acura Integra.
