Product Details

KYB Mount Components focuses on replacement strut mounts and bearing plates that restore the function of aging suspension insulators. On vehicles such as the Hyundai Accent and Kia Rio, a worn rear upper mount can allow extra vibration, clunks, and harshness to pass through the suspension. KYB SM5960 addresses that wear with an OE-style replacement built for the listed rear upper applications. This part cross-references Hyundai/Kia OE numbers 55311H5000 and 553221C000 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Rear suspension noise over bumps
• Excess vibration entering the cabin
• Harsh ride feel from worn mount insulators
• Clunking or rattling from deteriorated upper mount components
• Alignment or steering feel concerns related to worn support parts

Installation Notes

Verify vehicle year, make, model, and rear upper position before installation. Inspect the surrounding suspension components, fasteners, and upper mount area for wear or damage during service. Professional installation is recommended because suspension components affect ride quality and alignment.

Quality Assurance

KYB is known for OE-style suspension replacement parts, and SM5960 is engineered to meet application-specific fitment requirements for the listed Hyundai and Kia models. The part number SM5960 helps confirm the correct mount kit for service work on compatible rear upper applications.
