A strut damps spring and body motion while also forming a structural part of the suspension. Signs a strut may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose-dive under braking, body sway, fluid leaking from the strut body and uneven tire wear. Because these symptoms can have other causes, inspect the suspension before ordering.
This listing covers the front right position. Struts on the same axle are commonly replaced as a pair to help keep handling balanced from side to side.
