Product Description

The KYB SM5954 is a complete front strut mount kit engineered for the Chevrolet Malibu, Buick LaCrosse, and Buick Regal Sportback, which share this common GM platform component. A worn front strut mount is a common source of clunking or knocking noises and vague steering feel on these sedans, and this kit replaces the bearing, upper spring seat, and mounting hardware all in one package to fully address the issue.

Built to OE-style geometry, this mount is engineered to preserve proper alignment and steady steering feel while curbing the noise, vibration, and harshness that a hardened or worn mount transmits into the cabin. The integrated bearing allows the strut to rotate smoothly during steering input, restoring the quiet, precise handling these sedans had when new.

This kit is a strong fit for Malibu, LaCrosse, and Regal Sportback owners installing fresh struts or springs, or renewing a worn front end. Because coil springs store significant energy, professional installation is recommended even though experienced DIYers with spring compressor tools can perform the job. Since this is currently a special-order item with limited stock, confirm availability with your supplier before ordering if timing is a concern.
