Review on ๐Ÿ”ง KYB SM5760 - Spring Seat Kit for Improved Performance and Durability by James Vilchez

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not exactly the same as the original

The design is not exactly the same as the original, therefore the spring does not sit flush like the original. The spring is not flat on the end, so only part of the spring end rests against the insulator. This creates a slight uneven tension in the rod mount, causing the spring and agitator mount to burst when rotated. There should be a small rubber wedge that conforms to the contour of the spring so that the load on the underside of the strut support is evenly distributed across the underside of the strut support. The problem is not unique to this isolator but to all non-genuine isolators that I have seen. I ended up buying the entire rack assembly from the dealer for way too much money, but my problem went away.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Fits
