What is the main job of a strut mount?

The strut mount connects your vehicle's strut assembly to the car's body. It also acts as a pivot point for steering and supports the weight of the vehicle, while isolating road noise and vibration.

How do I know if my strut mounts need replacing?

Symptoms of worn strut mounts include clunking or rattling noises when going over bumps, especially at lower speeds, and a feeling of looseness or vagueness in the steering.

Does this strut mount come with all the necessary hardware?

This product includes matched grade studs and nuts as part of its construction. It is recommended to inspect other associated hardware during installation and replace as needed.

Product Details

The front bearing plates on your 1995-2002 Kia Sportage are critical steering pivots that also support the vehicle's weight. When these strut mounts wear out, they can transmit jarring impacts, noise, and vibration into the cabin, making your ride uncomfortable and potentially affecting steering performance and wheel alignment. KYB's SM5453 strut mounts are designed to replace those old, hardened insulators, bringing back a smoother, quieter driving experience.

These mounts are built with matched grade studs and nuts, ensuring a solid connection. They work to cushion the impacts from road bumps, effectively reducing the harshness that old mounts can allow through. By restoring the function of these critical suspension components, you'll notice an improved feel in your steering and a more comfortable ride overall.
