KYB SM5402 Strut Mount Kit Overview
The KYB SM5402 strut mount kit is an OE-quality suspension replacement for front applications on select Acura and Honda models. It is built to reduce the vibration, noise, and harshness that worn upper mounts can transmit into the cabin while helping restore steering feel and front-end stability.
Compatible with 2005-2006 Acura RSX, front; 2002-2005 Honda Civic, front; and 2002-2003 Acura EL, front, this KYB Mount Components part is designed for direct-fit service on the suspension strut mount location.
Key Features
- OE-quality replacement strut mount for front suspension service
- Superior rubber construction helps reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
- Mount bearings support smoother steering response and help maintain front-end alignment
- Matched-grade studs and nuts support proper fitment during installation
- Designed to optimize suspension performance for the specific application
Product Details
KYB Mount Components focuses on replacing worn vibration insulators and bearing plates that can affect ride quality and steering precision. On vehicles such as the Honda Civic and Acura RSX, the upper strut mount and bearing play an important role in absorbing road impact, supporting vehicle weight, and serving as a steering pivot at the front suspension. When these parts wear out, the result is often increased road noise, clunks over bumps, and less consistent alignment behavior. The KYB SM5402 addresses those issues with application-specific construction and materials selected to restore original-equipment-style function.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 904996 for the same application.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Clunking or knocking noises from the front suspension
- Excess vibration or harshness felt through the chassis
- Steering that feels less smooth or less precise
- Front-end alignment instability caused by worn mount bearings
- Degraded ride quality from hardened or damaged upper mounts
Installation Notes and Tips
Install the KYB SM5402 on the front suspension only for the listed applications. Because strut mounts and bearings affect steering and alignment, inspect the surrounding suspension components before installation and verify that the strut assembly matches the vehicle application. Professional alignment service is recommended after suspension work is completed.
Quality Assurance
KYB is known for OE-style suspension replacement components, and the SM5402 is built to meet the needs of the specified Acura and Honda applications with application-specific fit and function.
