Product Details

KYB Excel-G is KYB’s OE-style replacement line, built on the same assembly lines and with the same quality components used for original equipment production. For the Mitsubishi Outlander, this rear strut is intended to restore the vehicle’s designed ride control, lane-change response, stopping stability, and handling balance. The 341454 strut uses a twin-tube, gas-charged construction and is calibrated to match factory performance rather than alter it.

This part cross-references Mitsubishi 4162A034 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive rear bounce or oscillation
• Reduced stability during braking and lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping
• Noisy or loose-feeling rear suspension behavior
• Loss of factory ride control on a Mitsubishi Outlander

Installation Notes

Fits 2009-2013 Mitsubishi Outlander, rear, recommended OEM replacement; without 3rd row seating; Excel-G. Fits 2008-2011 Mitsubishi Outlander, rear; replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions; Excel-G.

KYB recommends installing new strut mounts, part number SM5091, to reduce noise and vibration. A KYB strut boot, part number SB108, can help protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and road salt. Verify all suspension components and alignment settings before returning the vehicle to service.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major supplier of shocks and struts to vehicle manufacturers, and Excel-G is produced to OE-quality standards on KYB’s OEM assembly lines. The design focuses on restoring factory-calibrated suspension performance for the Mitsubishi Outlander, with attention to sealing, damping control, and structural rigidity.
