What is the main job of a strut mount?

A strut mount connects your vehicle's strut assembly to the car's body. It helps to cushion impacts from road bumps, reducing noise and vibration. The front bearing plates also serve as the steering pivot point.

Why should I replace my old strut mounts?

Over time, strut mounts can harden and crack, leading to increased noise, vibration, and a less comfortable ride. Replacing them with new ones, like these from KYB, helps restore proper suspension performance and steering feel.

Does this strut mount come with all the necessary hardware?

Yes, this KYB strut mount includes matched grade studs and nuts, which are essential for proper installation and function.

Product Details

KYB is known for making reliable suspension components, and these strut mounts are a good example of that. If you're working on the front suspension of your 1981-1985 Mazda RX-7, replacing the strut mounts is a key step to restoring a smooth ride. Old strut mounts can become hardened over time, leading to extra vibration and noise that travels into the cabin. These KYB mounts are designed to replace your original parts, helping to cushion impacts from road bumps and reduce that jarring effect.

These mounts do more than just absorb shock; the front bearing plates act as the pivot point for your steering and also support the vehicle's weight. This means they play a critical role in how your car steers and how well your wheel alignment holds up. KYB makes these with matched grade studs and nuts, ensuring they are a solid option for restoring proper steering feel and suspension performance on your RX-7.
