Westar ST-4938 Suspension Strut Mount - Front

Westar ST-4938 Front Strut Mount

Westar ST-4938 is a front suspension strut mount built for vehicles that need a stable upper strut connection and controlled suspension movement. It is designed for Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, and Mercury Mariner front applications across the listed model years.

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 at the upper mounting point
• Includes a noise-dampening design to reduce road noise and vibration transfer into the cabin
• Made with materials selected for the specific application and finished to help extend service life

Product Details

This suspension strut mount is engineered for front-end service on 2001-2012 Ford Escape, 2001-2006 and 2008-2011 Mazda Tribute, and 2005-2011 Mercury Mariner models. Westar ST-4938 is a direct-fit style replacement for the upper strut mount location, helping restore the connection between the strut assembly and the vehicle body. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 904938 for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Address

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Excess vibration or road noise entering the cabin
• Loose or unstable upper strut mounting
• Reduced steering precision caused by worn mount components
• Uneven tire wear related to suspension movement outside normal range

Installation Notes

Install ST-4938 at the front strut mount location only and verify vehicle year, make, model, and suspension configuration before service. Because the strut mount works with the strut assembly and body attachment point, inspect related suspension components for wear during replacement. Professional installation and alignment checks are recommended after suspension service.

Quality Assurance

Westar uses application-specific materials and a protective finish to support durability and appearance in service. The mount is built to meet the demands of front suspension operation on Ford Escape, Mazda Tribute, and Mercury Mariner applications.
