Detailed Description
KYB Excel-G 341483 is engineered as a direct-fit rear suspension strut for the Kia Amanti. With compressed length of 16.41 in., extended length of 22.44 in., and stroke length of 6.03 in., it is built around the vehicle’s original suspension geometry and damping requirements. The upper mount type is 10X1.25 and the lower mount type is E2(20X43).
This Excel-G strut is designed to restore the Amanti’s original ride control, lane-change response, braking stability, and handling balance. KYB’s OE-focused construction and damping calibration make it a practical choice for replacing worn rear struts on 2004, 2005, and 2006 Kia Amanti models. This part number 341483 cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 71115 for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Excessive rear bounce or float after bumps
- Reduced stability during braking or lane changes
- Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping
- Noisy or loose-feeling rear suspension behavior
- Loss of original ride control on a Kia Amanti
Installation Notes and Tips
