Installation Notes and Tips
Fits 2003-2008 Mazda 6, front left. Replace the suspension strut and coil spring assembly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. KYB recommends installing new strut mounts, part number SM5428, to reduce noise and vibration, and a KYB strut boot, part number SB101, to help protect the strut from dirt, debris, and salt. Verify all mounting dimensions and position before installation.
Quality Assurance
