KYB SM5028 Suspension Strut Mount - Front Right

KYB SM5028 Front Right Strut Mount

KYB SM5028 is a suspension strut mount for the front right side on select Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird applications. It is built to replace worn vibration insulators and restore quieter, more controlled front suspension operation.

Mount Components Overview

KYB Mount Components are engineered as OE-quality replacement parts for specific vehicle applications. On this strut mount, the rubber isolator helps reduce road shock transfer into the cabin, while the bearing plate supports steering movement and front-end alignment behavior.

• OE-quality replacement strut mount for application-specific fitment
• Superior rubber helps reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
• Bearing design supports smoother steering response
• Helps maintain front-end alignment characteristics
• Matched-grade studs and nuts for proper component matching

Detailed Product Description

The KYB SM5028 strut mount is designed for vehicles where the original mount has hardened, cracked, or lost its ability to isolate vibration. In front suspension service, the mount and bearing plate play an important role in steering pivot action and load support. For 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro front right and 1982-1992 Pontiac Firebird front right applications, this part helps restore the feel and function expected from a properly working suspension strut mount. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 901923 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Excess cabin vibration from worn mount insulators
• Rough or noisy steering movement at the strut top
• Front-end alignment instability caused by worn bearing support
• Reduced suspension isolation over bumps and road joints

Installation Notes

Install SM5028 on the front right position only where listed fitment applies. Inspect the strut assembly, bearing surface, and surrounding suspension hardware before installation. Because the mount affects steering pivot and alignment behavior, a professional alignment check is recommended after service.

Quality Assurance

KYB is known for OE-style suspension replacement components, and the Mount Components line focuses on restoring original ride and steering characteristics with application-specific engineering. SM5028 is built to meet the needs of the listed Camaro and Firebird fitments.
