KYB SM5462 Suspension Shock Mounting Kit - Rear Upper

KYB SM5462 Rear Upper Strut Mount

KYB SM5462 is a suspension shock absorber mounting kit built for rear upper applications on select Nissan models. It replaces worn vibration insulators and bearing components that can transmit noise, harshness, and steering-related movement into the cabin.

Compatible with 2003-2007 Nissan Murano, rear upper, and 2004-2009 Nissan Quest, rear upper, this KYB Mount Components part is focused on restoring OE-style suspension feel and alignment support.

Key Features

• OE-quality replacement strut mount for application-specific fitment
• Superior rubber helps reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
• Mount bearings promote smoother steering response and help retain front-end alignment
• Front bearing plate design supports steering pivot function and vehicle weight where applicable
• Matched-grade studs and nuts for proper component matching

Product Details

KYB Mount Components are engineered to replace hardened or worn strut mount parts that can affect ride quality and suspension control. The SM5462 is designed around the rear upper mounting position for the Nissan Murano and Nissan Quest applications listed below, helping restore the isolation and support expected from a quality suspension mount.
