Strut Mount / Top Mount – SAM-97032

The shock absorber top glue, also known as the spring seat ring shock absorber bracket, is mainly made of plastic rubber and is an important component connecting the shock absorber and the car body. Its main functions include:
‌Buffering Impact‌: During the driving process of the car, the shock absorber top glue can absorb and buffer the vibration generated during the driving of the vehicle, ensuring that the vehicle can adjust smoothly when passing through speed bumps or uneven roads, thus improving driving comfort‌.
‌Sound insulation effect‌: The top rubber of the shock absorber can effectively absorb the tire noise caused by the impact of the tire and the ground, bringing a quieter driving experience to the driver‌.
‌Improve handling performance‌: A well-functioning shock absorption system can ensure the stability of the vehicle during cornering and acceleration, thereby improving driving safety‌.
There is no fixed replacement cycle for the shock absorber top glue. It usually needs to be replaced when the following symptoms occur:
‌Comfort becomes worse‌: There is a sound when passing the speed bump, indicating that the top rubber may have aged or been damaged.
‌Steering wheel is not straight‌: The steering wheel is crooked when driving in a straight line, indicating that the top glue needs to be replaced‌.
The method of replacing the shock absorber top glue may be different for different models. In some models, the shock absorber top glue can be removed directly from the shock absorber without completely removing the shock absorber. In other models, however, it may be necessary to completely disassemble the shock absorber to replace the top rubber‌.
To sum up, the shock absorber top glue plays an important role in the car, and regular inspection and maintenance of its function are essential to maintain the performance and comfort of the vehicle.
