KYB SM5168 Strut Mount with Bearing Plate

The KYB SM5168 Strut Mount is an OE-quality replacement component engineered to restore suspension performance and eliminate the vibration, noise, and harshness caused by worn or hardened factory mounts. As a direct-fit replacement, it is designed to match the specifications of the original equipment part it replaces.

Key Features:

• Eliminates vibration and noise caused by old, hardened vibration insulators
• Cushions impacts from road bumps to reduce jarring, noise, and harshness transmitted into the cabin
• Includes a front bearing plate that serves as the steering pivot and supports vehicle weight
• Critical to proper steering performance and wheel alignment accuracy
• Designed to OE specifications for a precise, application-specific fit
• Manufactured to KYB's industry-leading quality standards

The integrated bearing plate is a key structural component — it supports the vehicle's weight at the strut tower and acts as the pivot point for steering input, making proper condition essential for accurate wheel alignment and responsive handling. Replacing a worn strut mount with the KYB SM5168 restores the full performance of the suspension system and helps protect other steering and suspension components from premature wear.
