KYB Suspension Strut Mount P/N:SM5681
Help quiet a noisy front suspension and steady your steering with the KYB strut mount (SM5101), a direct-fit front suspension strut mount engineered as an OE-quality replacement for the 1989-1998 Nissan 240SX. It positions the top of the strut in the body while its rubber isolator cushions road impacts and its bearing serves as the steering pivot — a job old, hardened mounts stop doing well.
Superior rubber isolator: reduces the noise, vibration and harshness that worn mounts transmit into the vehicle.
Mount bearing: acts as the front steering pivot and supports vehicle weight, helping provide smoother steering and retain front-end alignment.
OE-quality build: a replacement component designed specifically for the application to help optimize suspension performance.
Matched-grade studs and nuts are listed among this mount's features.
Hardened or separated rubber, a notchy or stiff steering feel, clunking over bumps, and uneven front tire wear are signs this KYB top mount may need replacing. If a failed strut mount is the cause, this replaces it. This 1989-1998 Nissan 240SX strut mount installs at the front.
