Help keep the front end supported and your ride under control with the Focus Auto Parts suspension strut, part number 1334486L. This front left strut assembly is built as a direct-fit replacement for the 2021-2024 Nissan Kicks, pairing the strut with its coil spring in one unit.
- Assembly type: suspension strut and coil spring assembly
- Position: front left
- Direct fit: made for the 2021-2024 Nissan Kicks
- Sold individually: this listing is for one front left assembly
A strut assembly does two jobs at its corner of the vehicle. The coil spring helps carry the vehicle's weight and set ride height, and the strut dampens spring motion so the body does not keep bouncing after a bump. Because the spring arrives already fitted to the strut, you do not have to move the old coil spring onto a new strut.
Signs a strut assembly may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, the nose dipping hard under braking, fluid leaking from the strut body, a sagging corner, or uneven tire wear. Worn suspension parts can cause similar symptoms, so inspect the system before ordering. Replacing both front struts together is recommended for balanced handling. Follow the vehicle service information for torque values and whether the original fasteners can be reused. A wheel alignment check is recommended after installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a front strut assembly do?
The coil spring helps support the vehicle's weight and ride height at that corner. The strut dampens the spring's motion so the body settles after bumps instead of bouncing.
Which vehicle does the Focus Auto Parts 1334486L fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the front left position on the 2021-2024 Nissan Kicks. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for full fitment details.
How is a complete strut and coil spring assembly different from a bare strut?
With a bare strut, the old coil spring has to be moved onto the new strut. This assembly comes with the coil spring already fitted to the strut, so you skip that step.
What are signs my strut may need replacing?
Common signs are excessive bouncing, hard nose-dive under braking, fluid leaking from the strut, a sagging corner, or uneven tire wear. Inspect the suspension first, because other worn parts can cause the same signs.
Should I replace both front struts at the same time?
Each strut is sold individually, and this listing is one front left assembly. Replacing the left and right front struts together is recommended for balanced handling.
