KYB Suspension Coil Spring Seat P/N:SM5744
Help quiet squeaks and rattles from the front suspension with the KYB Coil Spring Seat with Insulator SM5701, a front upper spring seat that installs directly on the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2002-2006 Honda CR-V, 2001-2005 Honda Civic, and 2003-2011 Honda Element. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment.
This seat cradles the top of the coil spring and its insulator dampens the metal-to-metal contact between the spring and the mount. Over time the original insulator hardens, and that is when squeaks, rattles, and vibration noise start to transmit into the cabin.
If a worn or hardened spring seat insulator is the source of your suspension noise, this replaces it. Replacing both sides together is recommended for balanced ride quality.
