KYB 365064 Suspension Strut Cartridge - Front

KYB Excel-G Front Strut Cartridge

KYB Excel-G part number 365064 is a front suspension strut cartridge built to restore original ride control, stability, and steering response. It is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design made on KYB OE assembly lines with OE-quality components for service on select Toyota applications.

The Excel-G line is KYB’s OEA-style replacement range, calibrated to return factory-designed damping rather than change the vehicle’s character. For Toyota MR2, Corolla, and Celica front suspension service, 365064 is a direct-fit replacement choice for restoring handling balance and body control.

• Triple-lip fluid seal helps reduce oil and gas leakage
• Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves manage tire contact and body movement
• Supports proper operation of electronic safety systems by maintaining suspension behavior as engineered
• Strong strut body and bracket construction helps minimize flex and maintain alignment
• Part number 365064 for front suspension service

Detailed Description

KYB Excel-G 365064 is engineered for drivers and technicians who want OE-style suspension performance on the front of the vehicle. Its twin-tube, gas-charged design is calibrated to help restore ride control, lane-change responsiveness, braking stability, and overall handling consistency. This makes it a practical replacement for worn front strut cartridges on 1991-1995 Toyota MR2, 1988-1991 Toyota Corolla, and 1988-1989 Toyota Celica applications.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 73204) for the same application. If you are servicing a Toyota MR2 front strut cartridge or replacing a front suspension strut cartridge on a Toyota Corolla or Celica, KYB 365064 is built to match the original damping intent of the vehicle.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive bounce or float after bumps
• Loose or delayed steering response
• Nose dive during braking
• Body roll and instability in lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn damping control
