Product Details

The KYB Excel-G brand line is focused on restoring factory ride characteristics rather than altering them. Part number 341351 is manufactured on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and is classified as an Original Equipment for the Aftermarket replacement. For Mazda 6 owners looking for a front right suspension strut that supports predictable braking, lane-change response, and stability, this KYB Excel-G strut is built to match the vehicle’s original tuning. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 72195 for the same application.

Common Problems This Strut Can Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor damping over bumps
• Loose steering feel or delayed response during lane changes
• Nose dive under braking and reduced body control
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn suspension damping
• Noise or vibration from a worn front right strut assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2003-2008 Mazda 6, front right. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5428, to reduce noise and vibration, and a KYB strut boot, part number SB101, to help protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt. Verify upper mount thread size 10x1.25 and confirm compressed and extended length before installation.

The design is intended to restore original suspension performance for the Mazda 6 while supporting the operation of vehicle safety systems that depend on proper suspension, brake, and tire behavior.
