Product Line Details

KYB Excel-G is KYB’s OEA line, built on the same OE assembly lines used for original equipment production and calibrated to return the suspension to factory-designed performance rather than change it. The 341463 part number is a direct-fit rear strut for the Honda CR-V platform listed below.

Detailed Description

Compatible with 2005-2006 Honda CR-V, rear.

• Reduced stability during braking or quick lane changes
