Installation Notes and Tips
Fits 2000-2001 Infiniti I30, front left, and fits 2000 Nissan Maxima, front left. For the Infiniti I30, replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends installing new strut mounts, part number SM5409, to reduce noise and vibration, and a KYB strut boot, part number SB104, to help protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt. Verify alignment after installation.
