Westar ST-1946 Suspension Strut Mount - Front

Westar ST-1946 Front Suspension Strut Mount

Westar ST-1946 is a front suspension strut mount built for direct replacement service on select Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac applications. It is designed to support suspension rotation, secure the strut to the body, and reduce road noise and vibration transfer into the cabin.

Key Features

• Provides a pivot point for the suspension to rotate while maintaining correct suspension dynamics
• Helps support steering response and reduce uneven tire and component wear
• Locks the strut and body together for secure mounting
• Includes a noise-dampening function to reduce road noise and vibration
• Built with materials selected for the specific application and finished to help extend service life

Detailed Description

The Westar ST-1946 suspension strut mount is engineered for front-end service where the upper strut mounting point needs to be restored. On vehicles such as the 1992-1994 Buick Skylark, 1992-1994 Chevrolet Corsica, 1992-1994 Oldsmobile Achieva, and 1992-1994 Pontiac Grand Am, a worn mount can affect steering feel, ride quality, and cabin comfort. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 901946) for the same application. The ST-1946 is a practical replacement choice when the original mount no longer isolates vibration or properly supports strut movement.

What It Helps Address

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Excess road noise and vibration entering the vehicle
• Loose or inconsistent steering response
• Premature tire wear caused by suspension movement issues
• Wear at the upper strut mounting point

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible With 1992-1994 Buick Skylark, front; 1992-1994 Chevrolet Corsica, front; 1992-1994 Oldsmobile Achieva, front; and 1992-1994 Pontiac Grand Am, front. Verify the vehicle’s front suspension configuration before installation and inspect related strut components, bearings, and hardware condition during service. For best results, replace worn suspension parts as needed so the new mount can perform correctly.

Quality Assurance

Westar manufactures this strut mount using application-specific materials and a protective finish intended to support durability and appearance over time. The ST-1946 is built as a replacement suspension component for consistent fitment on the listed vehicles.
