As the name implies, the strut mount is a component that attaches the suspension strut to the vehicle. The strut mount optimizes suspension performance by providing a smooth steering response and reducing vibration. The strut mount includes an insulator and on front struts, a steering pivot bearing. The insulator gets pushed and pulled as many as 1,500 times for every mile driven, and the bearing rotates every time you turn the steering wheel, so it’s easy to see how this part can become worn. To prevent noise and vibration, and preserve smooth steering and proper front end alignment, when you install new KYB struts, install new KYB strut mounts as well. They’re built to meet or exceed OE quality.

KYB Front Strut Mounts

KYB® - Front Strut Mounting Kit

These strut mounts work really well. I replaced the factory with these when I replaced the struts. Quite an improvement!

Front Strut Mounting Kit

Brand new and fits like it should. I was surprised it didn't have the spring base mount as I assumed it was included in the mounting kit. The top rubber mount was there but it was missing the bottom rubber mount. If I would have known, I could have ordered it when I ordered this part and the struts. Instead I had to get it from a dealer and pay 4 times the amount if I had ordered it so I had it while the vehicle was apart.
