  • Front strut mount

    Okay, so I pulled the front struts out and the front strut mount came all apart.

    First Question, are there no bearings used in it?

    Second, How does it all go together. There is the big top piece that mounts into fenderwell, then I got the two washer like pieces... theres the flat washer thing and the one with the 'lip?' in the middle of it. How do they go back in?

    Thanks.

    Get new ones for a Kia Rio. They have roller bearings and will make steering way easier.

          Does it really affect steering that much?

              Hmmm, I know where a 2000 model Rio is. This would be the perfect upgrade for my project.
