Unsatisfactory Strut Mount

Based on my experience, this strut mount has been nothing but trouble. The installation process was difficult and the instructions were not clear. The only positive aspect is that it is made of durable materials. Unfortunately, the mount does not provide the proper support for the vehicle and causes excessive shaking and noise. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

Pros
  • Durable construction with high quality materials for longevity and reliability
Cons
  • Requires specific tools and expertise for installation

Perfect fit for my 2005 Hyundai Tucson 2.7 V6.

I've had good luck with all of the KYBs and this one is no exception. Different left and right side of the back of my car. Easy enough to replace if you have a spring compressor and a little bit of confidence. Me and YouTube can do almost anything with a car.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Something else

Replaced at the same time as the stanchions

Worked well to fit the rear shock for the 01 Elantra, it's a good idea to replace at the same time as the stays but not necessary. This and some Kyb kickstands fixed my rear end noise and greatly improved the ride quality. The rear strut mounts are different so you will need these and part number sm5239.

Pros
  • Fitting kits
Cons
  • Some little things
