KYB Excel-G Rear Strut for Prius
The KYB Excel-G 341322 is a rear suspension strut for 2004-2009 Toyota Prius models. It is built to restore original ride control, stability, braking response, and lane-change handling without changing the vehicle’s designed suspension behavior.
As part of the KYB Excel-G line, this strut is calibrated for OE-style performance and assembled on KYB production lines using OE-quality components. For Prius owners looking for a direct replacement rear strut, 341322 is a practical choice for restoring factory-like control.

- Excessive rear bounce or float
- Reduced braking stability
- Loose or delayed lane-change response
- Uneven tire contact from worn damping
- Noisy or unstable rear suspension behavior
Installation Notes
Fits 2004-2009 Toyota Prius, rear. Manufacturer notes specify replacing the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the vehicle service procedure. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5382, to reduce noise and vibration, and a KYB strut boot, part number SB108, to help protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt.
