Review on Enhance Suspension Performance with 🔧 KYB SM5402 - Strut Mount Kit by Mike Lunde

They work well but my first set (bought in September 2012, installed a month or two later) started to fail after about a year (probably about 20,000 miles) when the rubber part came loose. from steel. I bought the second set on February 14th but didn't want to change them right away so they sat in my garage and the rubber shavings started to gather under the hood and the noise got worse with every bump. . I finally got tired of the noise and changed them a few weeks ago (December '16) and all was fine again, quiet and smooth. So the good thing is that they work great when new and even if they are "faulty" they don't fall apart or cause safety issues. An added benefit is that the bearing on this bracket is the perfect diameter to slide onto the crankshaft to install the new rear main seal with the three flywheel mounting bolts.
