Replace a worn front left strut in one step with the Focus Auto Parts suspension strut and coil spring assembly, part number 1331716L. It is a direct-fit replacement for the front left position on the listed 2003-2006 Acura MDX applications.
This complete strut and coil spring assembly puts the strut and its coil spring in a single unit. The strut dampens the up-and-down movement of the suspension, and the coil spring helps support the vehicle's weight at that corner.
Signs the front left strut may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose-diving under braking, fluid seeping from the strut body, uneven tire wear, or a corner that sits lower than the others. Tires, bushings and other suspension parts can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing.
Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners, torque values and whether the original fasteners may be reused. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
