Restore factory ride height and quiet, controlled handling with the Monroe OESpectrum Front Right Suspension Strut 72970. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2015-2020 Acura TLX and 2013-2017 Honda Accord (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details), arriving as a fully assembled corner unit that combines the coil spring, upper strut mount and strut.
Complete, ready to install: includes the required components in a single, fully assembled unit, so no spring compressor is needed for the replacement.
Restores ride height: the application-specific coil spring is calibrated to the OE design to help restore ride height and support the vehicle's weight.
Vehicle-specific design: application-specific coil spring, mount and strut designs are engineered for ride and handling suited to this vehicle.
OE-style build: the preassembled upper strut mount, coil spring and strut carry an OE-style design for fit, form and function.
Rust resistance: a protective coating resists rust and corrosion, and salt spray testing checks it against the elements.
By damping suspension movement, it helps reduce body sway, vibration and road harshness before it reaches the cabin, and the premium upper strut mount helps maintain smooth steering. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.
Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles does the Monroe 72970 fit?
It's a direct-fit front right suspension strut for the 2015-2020 Acura TLX and 2013-2017 Honda Accord. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact application for your vehicle.
Is this a complete strut assembly or just the strut?
It ships as a fully assembled unit that includes the coil spring, upper strut mount and strut together, so it installs as a single corner without separate parts.

No. Because it comes fully assembled as an all-in-one unit, no spring compressor is required for the replacement.

Should I replace both struts at the same time?
