Product Details
KYB AGX is the adjustable performance line from KYB, built for drivers who want more control than a standard OE replacement can provide. Part number 741015 uses velocity-sensitive damping to react quickly to changing road and driving conditions, helping maintain tire contact and vehicle control. This front strut is a strong choice for a Mazda Miata suspension upgrade when precise damping adjustment matters.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Issues It Can Address
- Excessive body roll during cornering
- Soft or inconsistent front-end damping
- Reduced control during aggressive street driving or track sessions
- Need for a tunable suspension strut on a 1990-1997 Mazda Miata
- Loss of response from worn front suspension components
Installation Notes
- Fits 1990-1997 Mazda Miata, front.
- KYB recommends new strut mounts, part number SM5077, to reduce noise and vibration.
- Use a KYB strut boot, part number SB108, to help protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt.
- Verify vehicle application and front suspension configuration before installation.
Quality Assurance
KYB designs the AGX line for performance-oriented ride control and consistent damping response. Part number 741015 is built with a sealed working cylinder and coated piston band to support long service life under demanding driving conditions.
