Smooth out a worn front corner and settle the ride with the Monroe Quick-Strut 172263 Front Right Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly — a fully assembled strut assembly that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2013 Mazda 3 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications). This complete strut and coil spring assembly arrives as a single, preassembled unit — upper strut mount, coil spring, and strut together — so there's no wrestling with a spring compressor during installation.
The premium upper strut mount is designed to support smooth steering precision and help limit noise, vibration, harshness, and memory steer. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.
What vehicles does the Monroe 172263 strut assembly fit?
It's a direct-fit front right replacement for the 2004-2013 Mazda 3. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications for your specific vehicle.
Is this the strut assembly for a 2008 model of the 2004-2013 Mazda 3?
Yes. The 172263 fits the 2004-2013 Mazda 3, which includes the 2008 Mazda 3, in the front right position.
Do I need a spring compressor to install this?
No. It ships as a fully assembled unit with the strut mount, coil spring, and strut together, so no spring compressor is required for the strut replacement.
What position is the 172263 designed for?
It is the front right (passenger-side) unit. For balanced handling, consider replacing the opposite front strut at the same time.
What is included in this front strut assembly?
It's an all-in-one unit with a preassembled upper strut mount, application-specific coil spring, and strut, engineered to restore factory ride height.
