Strut Top Insulator Assembly (Front Suspension)
This suspension insulator sits at the top of the strut where it meets the body. Its job is simple: stop harsh vibration and road noise from travelling into the cabin, while keeping the strut seated correctly. A good insulator makes the car feel tight, quiet, and controlled π.
Why this part is needed
Every bump sends force through the strut. The insulator acts like a cushion and an alignment buffer, protecting the strut mount area and helping maintain correct suspension geometry.
How it works
Built from durable rubber and bonded materials, it compresses slightly under load, absorbing micro-shocks and reducing metal-to-metal contact. It also helps prevent the strut top from shifting during steering and braking.
What happens if itβs worn or broken
- Clunking/knocking over bumps π§
- More vibration and cabin noise
- Uneven tire wear due to poor strut positioning
- Loose steering feel and reduced ride comfort
- Faster wear of strut mounts and related hardware
Compatibility
- Outlander PHEV
