- Fits: the 2016-2017 Subaru Crosstrek and other vehicles

A leaking strut body, a bouncy ride, nose-dive when braking or clunks over bumps can mean a strut is worn. These signs alone do not prove the strut is the problem, since a worn sway bar link can make similar noises. If the strut is the cause, this complete strut and coil spring assembly replaces the strut, spring and mount together.
Fits
It fits the 2016-2017 Subaru Crosstrek and the 2013-2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek. This listing is one front left assembly; the 2016-2017 Subaru Crosstrek takes one per side, the front right is a separate part, and both front struts are normally done at the same time.
