KYB Suspension Strut Mount P/N:SM5046
Cushion rear-suspension impacts and cut the noise and vibration that old, hardened mounts transmit into the vehicle with the KYB strut mount SM5140. This rear-position mount is a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-2000 Ford Contour, 1999-2000 Mercury Cougar, and 1995-2000 Mercury Mystique. KYB strut mounts are an OE-quality replacement designed for each application, so a worn insulator that has hardened can be swapped for a fresh unit.
A suspension strut mount secures the top of the strut to the body while isolating road vibration and allowing the assembly to move with the suspension. If your KYB strut mount has cracked or the rubber insulator has hardened, replacing it can address rear-end knocking, harshness, and NVH traced to a failed mount. Inspect and diagnose the cause before ordering.
