KYB 741031 Suspension Strut - Front Left

KYB AGX Front Left Strut for Honda Prelude

The KYB AGX suspension strut gives Honda Prelude owners manual ride control adjustment for street driving or track use. This front left unit is built for 1992-2001 Honda Prelude applications and lets you change damping without special tools or removing the tire.

AGX Adjustable Performance

KYB AGX is the adjustable performance line for drivers who want more control than a standard OE replacement strut. Depending on the application, adjustment is made with either an eight-position knob or a four-position screwdriver slot, and one setting changes both rebound and compression damping. Part number 741031 is engineered for the front left position on the Honda Prelude.

• Manual damping adjustment for personalized ride control
• Can add up to 125% more damping force than the original Honda Prelude design
• External adjustment without lifting the vehicle or removing the tire
• Precision multi-stage hydraulic valves for a wider performance range
• Seamless working cylinder with Teflon-coated piston band for sealing and durability
• Engineered to work with vehicles equipped with electronic safety systems such as ESC and ABS
