Product Description
Core Product Description
The 51670-TZ5-A04 Honda Shock Absorber Mounting is a front suspension component for select Honda SUV models. Also known as a strut mount, front shock absorber mounting, or rubber front mount, this part secures the top of the front strut assembly to the vehicle body .
The strut mount serves as the upper mounting point for the front shock absorber and coil spring assembly. It supports vehicle weight, provides a pivot point for steering, and isolates road vibrations and noise from the cabin through its rubber construction . Over time, the rubber in the mount can harden or deteriorate, leading to increased noise, vibration, and reduced ride comfort.
When Should You Replace It?
Consider replacing your shock absorber mounting if you experience any of the following symptoms:
-
Clunking or knocking noise from the front suspension when driving over bumps or uneven roads
-
Excessive vibration felt through the steering wheel or floor during normal driving
-
The vehicle feels loose or unstable, especially during cornering
-
Visible damage to the rubber mount – cracking, tearing, or deterioration
-
Uneven or rapid tire wear on the front tires
-
The vehicle rides harshly or feels less composed over bumps
Note: Strut mounts are wear items that should be inspected during suspension service and replaced when signs of wear or damage appear. Replacing strut mounts in pairs (both front) is recommended for balanced handling performance.
