Quiet a harsh, noisy rear ride with the KYB strut mount kit (SM5422), a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2006 Saab 9-2X, 2003-2008 Subaru Forester, and 2004-2007 Subaru Impreza. This rear suspension strut mount kit secures the top of the strut to the vehicle body and uses a rubber insulator to cushion the impacts from road bumps, reducing the noise, vibration and harshness that old, hardened mounts transmit into the cabin.
KYB builds this mount to OE-quality standards, with replacement components designed for each application to isolate the suspension as worn, hardened insulators no longer can.
If a worn strut mount is the source of clunks, added vibration, or cracked and hardened rubber at the top of the rear strut, this kit replaces it. Interchange: 143205 · 905950 · 32005858 · 32005859 · 20370FE100 · 20370FE110 · 20390FE000 · 20390FE010
