Product Description

The KYB 339388 is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube Excel-G strut engineered for the front left position on the 2012-2016 Subaru Impreza. Built on the same OE assembly lines KYB uses for original-equipment production, this strut is specifically calibrated to restore the Impreza's original handling and control characteristics.

Constructed with a seamless working cylinder, Teflon-coated piston band, and triple chrome-plated piston rod, this strut is designed for a positive seal and long service life. A precision, sintered-iron strut rod guide helps retain correct wheel alignment, while KYB's strengthened strut body and brackets minimize flex for consistent handling across driving conditions.

This strut is a good fit for Impreza owners performing a front strut replacement on the left/driver side, and should be paired with its companion part (KYB 339387) for the right side to complete a full front-axle replacement. Since it's sold individually without a spring, KYB also recommends installing new strut mounts (SM5664) and a strut boot (SB103) alongside this part to minimize post-installation noise and protect the strut from road debris.
