Strut mounts are the glue between the vehicle and its suspension strut. They clamp the vehicle from one side and the strut from the other. They effectively reduce the vibrations and noise from the automobile. If this component is at the front of the vehicle, it generally has bearings on either side. x

Strut mounts are the glue between the vehicle and its suspension strut. They clamp the vehicle from one side and the strut from the other. They effectively reduce the vibrations and noise from the automobile. If this component is at the front of the vehicle, it generally has bearings on either side. Strut mounts have a rubber middle, thereby giving rise to insulating properties. When a particularly bumpy ride causes jarring movements and/or noise, the strut mount acts as a very efficient absorber.
