Product Details

Unity Automotive focuses on aftermarket suspension components with an emphasis on consistent fit and factory-style replacement. The 11831 strut and coil spring assembly is fully assembled for the front left corner, helping reduce the time and effort normally required to transfer springs and mounts during a strut job. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. Part number 11831 is a direct replacement choice for drivers servicing a Kia Spectra or Kia Spectra5 within the listed model years.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Front-end noise from a worn strut mount or spring assembly
• Excessive bounce or reduced damping at the front left corner
• Uneven ride height caused by a fatigued coil spring
• Longer repair time from rebuilding a strut assembly piece by piece
• Factory-style suspension wear on higher-mileage Kia Spectra vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle year, model, and front left position before ordering. This assembly is listed for 2005-2009 Kia Spectra, 2005-2009 Kia Spectra5, and 2004 Kia Spectra with exclusions for Base, LS, GSX, and GS trims on the 2004 application. Because the unit is fully assembled, it is intended to streamline installation compared with rebuilding a strut from separate components. Confirm alignment after installation and inspect related suspension wear items during service.
