Product Details

The KYB Excel-G line is focused on restoring the vehicle’s original suspension behavior rather than changing ride characteristics. Part number 341499 is calibrated for the rear suspension on the Dodge Journey and is made on KYB OE assembly lines using OE-quality components. This strut is designed to help return the vehicle’s designed control, lane-change response, and handling balance. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 72511) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Excessive rear bounce or oscillation
  • Reduced stability during braking and cornering
  • Loose or delayed steering response from worn rear damping
  • Uneven tire contact caused by weak suspension control
  • Noise or vibration associated with worn rear strut components

Installation Notes and Tips

KYB recommends replacing strut mounts, part number SM5678, to reduce noise and vibration. Professional installation and a wheel alignment are recommended after strut replacement.

Quality Assurance

KYB is a major OE supplier, and Excel-G struts are built on the same KYB production lines used for original equipment applications. The Excel-G line is classified as OEA, meaning it is engineered to restore original designed performance for the vehicle.
