KYB Suspension Strut Mount P/N:SM5049

$54.99

Description

Quiet a harsh, noisy ride and keep steering crisp with the KYB strut mount SM5049, a front mount built to replace old, hardened vibration insulators that transmit jarring, noise and vibration into the vehicle. It's a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1993-2002 Toyota Corolla, 1998-2002 Chevrolet Prizm and 1990-1991 Lexus ES250 — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine-level details.

Superior rubber: cushions road impacts to reduce noise, vibration and harshness.
Mount bearings: provide smoother steering and help retain front-end alignment.
Matched grade studs and nuts: included for a clean, correct installation.
OE-quality replacement: designed for each application to optimize suspension performance.

The front bearing plate serves as the steering pivot and supports vehicle weight, making it critical to steering performance and wheel alignment. Sold individually; because the mounts wear together, replacing both sides as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride and steering.
