AGX Product Line Details

KYB AGX shocks and struts are designed for drivers who want to change damping response quickly and repeatedly. Depending on the application, the AGX uses either an eight-position knob or a four-position screwdriver slot, with both styles providing the same adjustment range. One adjustment changes rebound and compression damping together, giving you a straightforward way to tailor the rear suspension of your Nissan 240SX to changing road or track conditions.

What This Strut Helps Address

• Excessive body motion during cornering or braking
• Rear suspension that feels too soft for performance driving
• Need for quicker damping changes between street and track use
• Reduced tire contact over uneven pavement or aggressive driving inputs
• Worn rear strut performance on a 1989-1994 Nissan 240SX

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1989-1994 Nissan 240SX, rear, manually adjustable performance, excluding HICAS suspension. KYB recommends replacing the strut mounts at the same time to reduce noise and vibration; use KYB strut mount SM5154. KYB also recommends a strut boot, part number SB108, to help protect the new strut from dirt, debris, and salt. Part number 741017 is a direct-fit rear suspension strut for the listed application, and part number 741017 is the correct reference when verifying the rear AGX fitment for this vehicle.

Quality Assurance

KYB designs AGX dampers with velocity-sensitive valving to react quickly to changing driving conditions and help maintain tire contact and vehicle control. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
