KYB Suspension Strut Mount Kit P/N:SM5092
Help quiet a harsh, noisy front end with the KYB strut mount kit (SM5862), a front strut mount and bearing assembly that drops in as a direct-fit, OE-quality replacement for the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2014-2019 Kia Soul, 2013-2017 Hyundai Elantra GT and 2015-2019 Kia Soul EV; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. Sitting at the top of the strut, the mount locates the strut to the body and cushions impacts from road bumps to reduce the jarring, noise and vibration that old, hardened insulators transmit into the cabin.
This suspension strut mount kit pairs the mount with its bearing plate, which acts as the steering pivot and helps carry vehicle weight, so it plays a direct role in steering feel and wheel alignment.
KYB engineers these mounts and bearing plates specifically for each application. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment.
