KYB SM5852 Suspension Shock Mounting Kit - Rear Upper

KYB SM5852 Rear Upper Strut Mount

KYB SM5852 is a suspension shock absorber mounting kit for the rear upper position on select Nissan Cube models. It is built as an OE-quality replacement to address worn vibration insulators, reduce cabin noise, and restore more controlled suspension response.

Compatible with 2009-2014 Nissan Cube, rear upper, this KYB mount component is focused on replacing the parts that isolate road impact and support proper suspension movement. The KYB Mount Components line is engineered for application-specific fitment, making it a practical choice for drivers servicing a Nissan Cube rear upper strut mount.

Key Features

• OE-quality replacement strut mount for the rear upper suspension position
• Helps reduce vibration, noise, and harshness from worn insulators
• Rubber construction is designed to isolate road shock more effectively than hardened mounts
• Supports smoother steering feel and front-end alignment where bearing plates are used in the suspension system
• Matched-grade studs and nuts for application-specific serviceability

Product Details

KYB Mount Components are designed around the needs of each application, and SM5852 follows that approach for the 2009-2014 Nissan Cube. As a suspension shock absorber mounting kit, it replaces aging mount hardware that can transmit bumps, clunks, and vibration into the vehicle body. For buyers searching for a rear upper strut mount for Nissan Cube 2009-2014, KYB SM5852 provides a direct-fit service part from a brand known for suspension replacement components.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Help Address

• Clunking or knocking from the rear upper suspension area
• Excess vibration felt through the cabin
• Harsh ride quality caused by hardened mount insulators
• Reduced suspension isolation over bumps and rough pavement
• Steering or alignment concerns when related mount components are worn

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the rear upper position and vehicle application before installation. Inspect surrounding suspension components, fasteners, and bearing surfaces for wear before reassembly. Because strut mount service affects suspension geometry, a professional alignment check is recommended after repair.

Quality Assurance

KYB positions Mount Components as OE-quality replacement parts built for application-specific fitment and consistent suspension performance. SM5852 is part of that product line and is intended to restore the function of worn mount components on the specified Nissan Cube applications.
