My mechanic has asked me to get the "strut mounts" as well. Could someone link me to the appropriate ones (assuming pref KYB)?

Stefan, he's most likely referring to the strut bearings that are found above the coil spring. You'll see them if you l look in the engine compartment on top of the strut towers. They come out with the strut assembly. The lower mount is a cast knuckle and will be fine unless your car has accident damage.

Single if memory serves. But skip it. It broke in less than a year. Reuse your factory one if you can. If not buy another factory one. Kyb struts and shocks are great but their boots are worthless.

They are for the Rear, The front is Different. BMW E46 etc Front Right Suspension Strut Assembly KYB Excel-G 334945

The price is for 1 (one), as are most of the strut accompanying parts. Because I wanted to do a complete job, I found it helpful to go the KYB site to insure all the correct & necessary parts for the Front & Rear.

I didn't buy the KYB struts, however to answer your question, they fit both front and back. Note: the turned edge goes opposite of the bushing. In other words, flat side towards the neoprene/metal sleeve. I answered this at the request of Amazon. Any other questions, contact me. How? I am new to Amazon. BTW, I bought the Senso set and they are working out well. Good luck.

This one is meant to be direct mounted. The housing for suspension and direct mount are the same, however this does not come with the suspension kit that you will need.

I would suggest it. I did. It's the same labor to get the struts out to replace them later. If you have it apart replace everything in the same labor "path." It's worth it. I think I paid $60 for mounts on amazon. If possible don't be cheap. Get the mounts.

Oh no! You're going to need them! If you haven't already contacted the seller, I would try googling them maybe? I, personally, would need them because I am NOT mechanically inclined. Good luck!

Not sure. I would check KYB website or search here http://showmetheparts.com/kyb/

nothing comes with the strut. I found my old bushings to be better quality and used them.

Yes - I recently installed them on exactly that. It was a quick install w/ the exception of the left strut mount was not indexed correctly. I had to compress the spring to turn the mount. They will raise the front 2" which is almost perfectand they ride great. I did order the left and right assemblies but still had the prob with indexing.

I don't think so. The KYB site says it fits the following only: INFINITI-I30, I35 (04-00); NISSAN-ALTIMA, MAXIMA, MURANO, QUEST (09-02)Their site does not even list a suspension strut mounting kit for your car, just struts and boots.

for my avalon each strut is position specific. So you have to order 4 different shocks (part numbers)

They worked great and flawlessly on my Tacoma struts. Just be sure to lube the threads as it makes it much easier and lessens chances of galling threads.

I'm not a mechanic, but did tackle spring compression and strut replacement on my Mazda MPV mini-van. I had no issue when these clamps and they would appear to fit a wide array of springs. The also have a safety retaining pin that helped ease the fear of a compressed spring exploding. The local auto parts store did have this same set to rent for free if the struts were bought from them. I like owning tools and I got struts and the clamps for cheaper than the store. If you're buying for a store, may want to consider using or investigating their clamps.

I had them installed at Pep Boys. They offer a half off installion when you do any pair. Even if are not running teh special ask if they will install them under the promotional rate. They probably will.They had no problems at all. I was even able to use my original strut mounts as they were still in good shape. Have 5k on the full set and I have had no problems and the ride is as good if not better than the original shocks that dies at about 80k.
