KYB Suspension Strut Mount Kit P/N:SM5113
Quiet a noisy, vibrating front end with the KYB strut mount kit SM5143, a direct-fit front replacement for a long list of GM front-wheel-drive cars, minivans and crossovers — including the 2005-2009 Buick LaCrosse, 1997-2005 Buick Century, 2000-2013 Chevrolet Impala, 2005-2008 Chevrolet Uplander, 1997-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix and 2005-2007 Saturn Relay. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application and engine list.
KYB strut mounts replace the old, hardened vibration insulators that transmit noise and harshness into the cabin, and the front bearing plates serve as the steering pivots while supporting vehicle weight.
Mounted at the top of the front strut, this assembly isolates the strut from the body and locates the strut's upper end. If a worn mount is behind your clunking over bumps, binding steering or harshness, this front kit replaces it. Replace both sides together for balanced, even ride quality.

Does this KYB suspension strut mount kit fit my vehicle?
It's a front-position kit cataloged for many GM models such as the Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet Impala, Pontiac Grand Prix and Saturn Relay. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact year, make and model.
Is SM5143 a front strut mount?
Yes. This KYB kit is cataloged for the FRONT position and includes the strut mount and bearing that serve as the steering pivot at the top of the front strut.
What comes in the kit?
It includes the strut mount and bearing, plus matched-grade studs and nuts. The front bearing plate acts as the steering pivot and supports vehicle weight.
What are signs the strut mount may need replacing?
Noise, clunking over bumps, binding or notchy steering, and increased vibration or harshness can point to hardened or worn mounts. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
Should I replace both sides at once?
Replacing both front mounts together as a pair is recommended for even, balanced ride quality and steering feel, since the opposite mount is typically wearing at a similar rate.
