Product Details

The Monroe OESpectrum Strut 72968 is a suspension strut for the front right position on select Kia Soul models.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front right fitment before installation on your Kia Soul. Compare compressed length, extended length, and travel length to the removed part to confirm application match. Inspect surrounding suspension components, including mounts and related hardware, for wear before completing the repair. Professional installation and a wheel alignment are recommended after strut replacement.
