KYB Suspension Strut Mount P/N:SM5053
Help quiet a harsh, noisy ride and keep the strut assembly properly located with the KYB strut mount SM5538, a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1997-2001 Honda CR-V, 1992-2000 Honda Civic and 2000-2009 Honda S2000 (see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine-level fitment). This mount plate with insulator cushions the connection between the strut and the body, and it is cataloged for both front and rear positions depending on the application.
As a KYB shock mount, it is built to OE-level quality for each application, isolating road impacts so they arrive at the body less jarring. Worn strut mounts can show up as knocking over bumps, groaning while steering, or added vibration — if a failed mount is the cause, this unit replaces it. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section for the number of KYB top mounts your vehicle uses.
