Help keep your ride controlled and composed with this Kia Amanti strut assembly from Focus Auto Parts: the Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly, part number 1345938, a front, direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2006 Kia Amanti. Engine details for your vehicle are in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
A strut assembly does two jobs at the front suspension. The coil spring helps support the vehicle and sets ride height. The strut dampens spring motion and forms part of the suspension structure. This complete strut and coil spring assembly arrives with the spring already mounted on the strut, so the original spring does not need to be moved over from the old strut.
- Position: Front suspension.
- Design: Strut and coil spring combined in one assembly.
- Installation: Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners, torque values and whether original fasteners may be reused.
Signs that a front strut assembly may need replacing include:
- Excessive bouncing after bumps
- Nose-dive when braking
- Fluid leaking from the strut body
- A sagging front corner
- Uneven tire wear
Other parts can cause these symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. If a worn strut or spring is the cause, this assembly replaces both. Replacing both front struts together is recommended for balanced handling.
