KYB Suspension Strut Mount Bracket P/N:SM5771
Cushion road impacts and steady your steering with the KYB strut mount (SM5698), a front upper suspension strut mount that installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier, 2005-2012 Nissan Pathfinder and 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list. It replaces old, hardened vibration insulators to reduce the jarring, noise and vibration they transmit into the vehicle.
As a front upper mount, it serves as the steering pivot and helps support vehicle weight, making it critical to steering performance and wheel alignment. If a worn, hardened mount is the cause of steering-wheel vibration, noise or harsh ride, replacing SM5698 addresses it. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment.
