KYB Suspension Strut Mount Kit P/N:SM5471
Quiet a harsh, noisy front end and restore smooth steering with the KYB Suspension Strut Mount Kit SM5815. This front strut mount and bearing assembly installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 2012-2018 Ford Focus, 2013-2018 Ford C-MAX, 2013-2019 Ford Escape, 2014-2020 Ford Transit Connect, and 2015-2019 Lincoln MKC — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine coverage. It replaces old, hardened vibration insulators that transmit jarring, noise, and vibration into the cabin.
If worn, hardened mounts are the cause of front-end clunking on turns, steering effort, or vibration, this kit replaces them. As a paired suspension wear part, replacing the mount on both sides together is recommended for balanced ride and steering feel.
