• Nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube construction for consistent damping performance
• Triple-lip fluid seal helps reduce oil and gas leakage
• Vehicle-specific, hand-assembled damping valves manage tire contact and steering response
• Strong strut body and bracket design helps minimize flex and maintain alignment
• Part number 365076 for easy identification and ordering

Product Line Details

KYB Excel-G is built on the same OE assembly lines used for original equipment supply and uses OE-quality components calibrated to restore the vehicle’s original suspension performance. For Toyota Cressida, Corolla, and Celica front strut service, this line is focused on returning the suspension to factory-designed control rather than altering ride characteristics.

Detailed Description

Compatible with 1982-1992 Toyota front suspension applications listed below, the KYB 365076 strut cartridge is sized with a compressed length of 16.46 inches, an extended length of 23.9 inches, and a stroke length of 15.63 inches. It uses a 14X1.50 upper mount type and is designed to support proper damping in front-end suspension rebuilds where precise tire contact and steering response matter. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 73214 for the same application.

Fits 1983-1992 Toyota Cressida, front. Fits 1986-1987 Toyota Corolla, front. Fits 1982-1986 Toyota Celica, front.

What It Is Used For

• Front-end suspension rebuilds on Toyota Cressida, Corolla, and Celica models
• Correction of excessive bounce, float, or reduced damping control
• Improvement in steering response and lane-change stability
• Replacement for worn OE-style strut cartridges showing leakage or weak rebound control
• Restoring suspension behavior after high-mileage wear on factory components

Installation Notes and Tips

For 1986-1987 Toyota Corolla and 1982-1985 Toyota Celica applications, replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5020, to reduce noise and vibration, and a KYB strut boot, part number SB101, to help protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt.
