What does a strut mount do?

A strut mount connects your vehicle's strut assembly to the chassis. It also acts as a pivot point for steering and supports the vehicle's weight, helping to cushion road impacts and reduce noise and vibration.

Why should I replace my strut mounts?

Over time, strut mounts can harden, crack, or wear out. This leads to increased noise, vibration, and a less responsive steering feel. Replacing them with new ones can restore a smoother, quieter ride.

Does this strut mount come with all the necessary hardware?

This KYB strut mount includes matched grade studs and nuts. However, it's always recommended to inspect your existing hardware during installation and replace any worn or damaged components as needed.
