Help quiet a harsh, noisy rear ride with the KYB shock mount SM5182, a rear upper mount that seats the top of the shock absorber to the body. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1999-2005 Volkswagen Jetta, 1999-2006 Volkswagen Golf and 1998-2010 Volkswagen Beetle. Old, hardened insulators transmit road shock straight into the cabin; this mount replaces them to cushion impacts and reduce the jarring, noise and vibration old mounts pass through. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of applications.
If a failed rear upper mount is behind your knocking over bumps or top-end vibration, this KYB top mount replaces it. Sold individually; replacing both sides of the axle together as a set is recommended. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners and whether they may be reused.
