Detailed Description
KYB 341361 is engineered for drivers replacing a worn rear suspension strut on a Mitsubishi Outlander. The Excel-G line is calibrated to restore the vehicle’s original ride control and handling characteristics, making it a practical choice when the goal is to return the suspension to factory-like behavior. This rear strut uses KYB’s OE-oriented construction and damping control to help maintain consistent tire contact and stable chassis movement.

What It Helps Address
- Excessive rear bounce or oscillation
- Reduced stability during braking or cornering
- Loose or inconsistent handling response

Installation Notes and Tips
Fits 2003-2004 Mitsubishi Outlander, rear. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5091, to reduce noise and vibration. A KYB strut boot, part number SB108, helps protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt.
