The strut mount is the unsung hero of the vehicle’s suspension system. It acts as a steering pivot that is essential for a smooth, comfortable, and responsive ride. Any wear or tear to this component can affect handling as well as safety negatively. Like other automotive elements, there are also a few tell-tale signs of a defective strut mount. It is obligatory for an operative to be aware of those signs. By performing a visual inspection, you can identify the possible wear or damage. And when it comes to replacement, replace the mount in pairs and keep you safe from doing the same job twice.
