Faulty Strut Mounts Spoil Automotive Fun

These strut mounts are a disaster waiting to happen. The noise they make is unbearable and you can feel every bump in the road. The only pro is that they are priced low. The con is they will likely wear down quickly and create a safety issue for your vehicle. Avoid these at all costs.

Pros
  • Improves handling and reduces vibration
Cons
  • Requires professional installation for proper fitment

Make sure the bearing is tight and not open.

Should be half the price but works well. Oddly enough, I ordered two of these, which came from two different places. One had a sealed bearing, the other did not. I sent it back unsealed and ordered again. The third came with a sealed bearing.

Pros
  • Premium rubber reduces noise, vibration and harshness
Cons
  • weak

Complete disassembly, made in China

Original brand made in Japan and the part was made in China, there is no brand stamp on either side of the part so I doubt it is original. In no case does the supplier state in the publication that the product is made in China, if he had known he would not have bought it, it is poorly finished, he does not see good quality! complete disassembly

Pros
  • Top quality replacement strut mount available
Cons
  • -
