Westar ST-98001 Suspension Strut Mount - Front

Westar ST-98001 Suspension Strut Mount

Westar ST-98001 is a front suspension strut mount built for vehicles that need a secure upper strut connection and stable suspension movement. It is a direct-fit replacement for select Ford EcoSport and Ford Fiesta front applications, with construction focused on fit, function, and road-noise control.

Key Features

• Provides a pivot point for the suspension so the strut can rotate smoothly during steering input
• Helps keep suspension geometry within the correct operating range to support even tire and component wear
• Locks the strut and body together for a secure upper mounting point
• Includes a noise-dampening design to reduce road noise and vibration transfer into the cabin
• Built with materials selected for the specific application and finished to help extend service life

Detailed Description

Westar ST-98001 is a suspension strut mount designed for front installation on 2004-2012 Ford EcoSport and 2003-2010 Ford Fiesta models. This part cross-references Eagle BHP 5203 for the same application. As a front strut mount, it supports the upper end of the strut assembly, allowing controlled rotation while helping maintain steering response and suspension alignment. The mount also serves as a connection point between the strut and body structure, while its noise-dampening function helps isolate vibration from the road surface. For buyers searching for a Ford EcoSport front strut mount or a Ford Fiesta front suspension strut mount, ST-98001 provides a direct replacement option from Westar.

What It Helps Address

• Clunking or knocking from the upper strut area
• Excess vibration or road noise entering the cabin
• Loose or worn upper strut support
• Steering feel affected by worn suspension mounting points
• Uneven tire wear related to suspension movement issues

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front fitment against the vehicle year and model before installation. Inspect the strut assembly, spring seat, and related mounting components for wear before reassembly. Because this part is part of the suspension system, proper alignment checks after service are recommended. Confirm the replacement matches the original mounting style on the Ford EcoSport or Ford Fiesta application before beginning work.

Quality Assurance

Westar manufactures this strut mount using application-specific materials and a protective finish intended to support durability and appearance over time. The part is engineered as a replacement suspension component for the listed front applications.
