Quiet a harsh ride and keep the steering turning smoothly with the KYB strut mount kit SM5409, a front suspension strut mount kit built to replace old, hardened isolators that transmit noise and vibration into the cabin. It's a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2002-2006 Nissan Altima, 2000-2008 Nissan Maxima and 2003-2007 Nissan Murano. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine-level detail.
On these front struts, the bearing plate serves as the steering pivot and helps support vehicle weight, so it's key to steering feel and wheel alignment.
Worn strut mounts often show up as clunks over bumps, a groaning noise while turning, or vibration through the steering. If a failed front mount is the cause, this kit replaces it.
