Product Details

KYB Excel-G is KYB’s OEA line, built on the same OE assembly lines and using OE-quality components to return the suspension to its original operating characteristics rather than changing ride feel. Part number 341275 is engineered for the rear position on the Subaru Legacy and is a practical choice when replacing a worn suspension strut on 2000-2004 Subaru Legacy models.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor rebound control
• Loose or unstable rear-end handling
• Reduced steering response during lane changes
