KYB SM5585 Suspension Strut Mount Bracket - Rear Upper

KYB SM5585 Strut Mount Bracket

KYB SM5585 is a suspension strut mount bracket built for rear upper applications on select Acura and Honda vehicles. It replaces worn mount components that can transmit vibration, noise, and harshness into the cabin while helping restore steering feel and suspension control.

As part of KYB Mount Components, this strut mount bracket is engineered as an OE-quality replacement for the specific application. It is a practical choice for drivers servicing a Honda Accord, Acura TL, or Acura TSX rear upper mount and looking to address noise, alignment concerns, and ride quality issues tied to aging suspension hardware.

Key Features

• OE-quality replacement strut mount bracket for the specified application
• Superior rubber helps reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
• Mount bearings support smoother steering and help retain front-end alignment
• Matched-grade studs and nuts for application-specific service
• Designed to cushion road impacts and reduce jarring from worn mounts

Product Details

KYB Mount Components focus on restoring suspension performance with replacement parts built for the vehicle’s original design. The SM5585 strut mount bracket helps isolate road shock, supports the steering pivot function of the front bearing plate design, and addresses the vibration transfer that often develops as original vibration insulators harden with age. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 905986 for the same application. For shoppers comparing options, KYB SM5585 is a direct-fit suspension service part for rear upper mount locations on select Honda and Acura models, including Honda Accord, Acura TL, and Acura TSX.

What It Helps Fix

• Clunking or knocking from worn upper strut mount components
• Excess cabin vibration from hardened suspension insulators
• Harsh ride feel over bumps and rough pavement
• Steering looseness related to worn mount bearings
• Front-end alignment drift caused by degraded mount support

Installation Notes and Tips

Install the KYB SM5585 on the confirmed rear upper position only. Verify year, make, model, and suspension layout before service, especially on 1998-2012 Honda Accord, 1999-2014 Acura TL, 2004-2014 Acura TSX, 2012-2015 Honda Crosstour, 2010-2011 Honda Accord Crosstour, and 2001-2003 Acura CL applications. Because strut mount service affects suspension geometry and steering response, a professional alignment check after installation is recommended.

Quality Assurance

KYB builds Mount Components to OE-quality standards for application-specific fit and function. The SM5585 reflects KYB’s focus on restoring suspension performance, reducing noise transfer, and maintaining the steering and alignment characteristics expected from the original mount design.
