Silence a clunking, harsh-riding front end with the KYB strut mount kit SM5340 — a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2003 SAAB 9-3 (see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full engine-level fitment). Also listed as a suspension strut mount kit, this front-position assembly pairs the mount with its bearing plate to restore the strut's factory attachment to the body.
KYB strut mounts replace old, hardened vibration insulators that transmit road noise and vibration into the cabin, cushioning bump impacts to reduce that jarring effect. The front bearing plate is the steering pivot and helps carry vehicle weight, so it is critical to steering feel and wheel alignment.
