KYB SR4838 Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly - Rear Left

KYB Strut-Plus Suspension Assembly

The KYB Strut-Plus SR4838 is a suspension strut and coil spring assembly built to restore ride height, handling, and control. It is a direct fit for the rear left position on select Acura TSX models and uses an OE-style approach to match factory ride characteristics.

Key Features

• OE-restoring strut assembly for consistent ride height and control
• High carbon steel coil spring matched to vehicle attributes and corner weights
• Boot included for added protection of the strut shaft
• Engineered by KYB, an original equipment supplier
• Part number SR4838 for easy identification

Detailed Description

KYB Strut-Plus SR4838 combines a KYB OE-restoring strut with a coil spring designed to help return the suspension to factory ride height specifications. As a suspension strut and coil spring assembly, it plays a role in vehicle stability, steering response, and overall ride control. This makes it a practical choice for Acura TSX owners looking for a rear left suspension strut assembly that follows OE-style engineering. The SR4838 is also cross-referenced to Monroe Shocks & Struts 172692L for the same application.

Strut-Plus is KYB’s assembled strut line, focused on restoring the original suspension geometry and ride characteristics rather than changing them. The SR4838 uses a high carbon steel spring and includes a protective boot, helping support a clean, factory-oriented replacement on the Acura TSX.

What It Helps Solve

• Sagging ride height from worn suspension components
• Reduced handling control and body stability
• Noisy or worn strut assembly operation
• Loss of factory ride feel in the rear suspension
• Need for a direct replacement strut assembly for the rear left position

Installation Notes and Tips

KYB is an original equipment supplier, and the Strut-Plus line is engineered to restore handling and control capabilities using OE-oriented components and spring selection.
