Product Description
The KYB SM5937 front strut mount kit is specifically designed for the 2017‑24 Subaru Impreza and various 2020‑21 Subaru Ascent, Legacy, and Outback models. It serves as a high‑quality replacement for the factory front strut tower mount, delivering improved ride comfort, reduced noise and vibration, and restored steering feel. Because the mount retains factory geometry and height, this solution integrates seamlessly with the original suspension layout.
Over time, strut mounts can deteriorate — rubber insulators harden, bearings wear, and steering or ride‑quality issues can emerge. Installing the SM5937 kit addresses those symptoms by providing a new bearing assembly and mount plate that supports proper strut motion and absorbs shock more effectively. Ideal for drivers restoring handling feel, performing front‑suspension refreshes, or replacing mount assemblies after many miles of use.
Installation is straightforward: remove the existing front strut mount, install the SM5937 kit, and re‑secure per OEM torque specs. Ride height remains unchanged and alignment geometry is maintained, though an alignment check after installation is always recommended. Fitment is confirmed through 2021‑model years (for Impreza/Ascent) and 2020 for Legacy/Outback. Coverage for earlier or later years, or alternative trims/variants, is unconfirmed at time of listing. Always verify your vehicle’s build‑date, trim, front suspension variant and mounting side before purchase.
