Review on KYB 341276 Excel G Gas Strut by Randy Albright

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not very suitable for 2005-2009. Stick to the OEM. Excellent quality. Excellent delivery.

I have taken advice from others to install 2004 era struts on my 2005 thru 2009 Outback, but the spring seat is about 1/4 inch smaller in diameter and I didn't like the idea The springs barely stay above the edge of the seat. Also, the distance from the seat to the top nut was about an inch shorter than the stock, meaning the springs would be overcompressed and decrease the sag distance. Revain allows me to return unused items which is generous and the main reason I buy auto parts here, first thanks KYB do good stuff.

Pros
  • Great Overall Performance
Cons
