Product Details
KYB Excel-G is the brand’s OE replacement line, built on the same KYB assembly lines used for original equipment production and calibrated to return the vehicle to its designed performance rather than change it. For Ram 1500 front suspension service, part number 349110 is engineered to help restore ride control, stability, stopping behavior, and steering response while supporting the operation of electronic safety systems that depend on suspension geometry and tire contact. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 911300 for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Excessive front-end bounce or float on Ram 1500 and Ram 1500 Classic trucks
- Loose steering feel or delayed response during lane changes
- Nose dive and unstable braking behavior
