Frequently Asked Questions
Should KYB struts be replaced in pairs?
Replacing both struts on the same axle is generally recommended so damping and handling remain balanced. Follow KYB and vehicle service guidance.
Does this strut include the spring and upper mount?
Only when those components are expressly listed for the exact part number. A bare strut does not automatically include the spring, mount, bearing, boot, bump stop, or hardware.
Is an alignment required after replacing a strut?
Yes. A strut replacement can change suspension geometry. Complete installation and ride-height checks, then perform a professional alignment.
Installation Instructions
Follow the current KYB instructions and vehicle service manual for part number SM5717. Support the vehicle safely, use approved spring-compression equipment when required, follow position-specific torque procedures, and verify brake lines, sensors, steering movement, suspension travel, and wheel and tire clearance. Complete an alignment whenever the repair affects suspension geometry.
