Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this kit cover both front struts?

No, the EMA6151 kit contains components for one strut assembly. You will need two kits to replace both front mounts.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a spring compressor, a socket set, a torque wrench, and a jack/jack stands.

Can I install this without a spring compressor?

No. Attempting to disassemble a strut assembly without a spring compressor is extremely dangerous due to the high tension of the coil spring.

Is an alignment required after replacement?

Yes, it is highly recommended to have your vehicle professionally aligned after replacing any suspension component.

How do I know if my strut mounts are failing?

Common symptoms include rattling or clunking sounds over bumps, poor steering feedback, and uneven tire wear.

Troubleshooting

Persistent clunking noise after installation

Verify that the top nut is torqued to the manufacturer's specification and that the strut assembly is properly seated.

Steering feels stiff or binding

Check the alignment of the rolling bearing; if it was installed misaligned, it may cause resistance during steering input.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Complete kit includes both necessary components for the mount assembly
  • Meets or exceeds OE quality standards
  • Restores original handling characteristics
  • High-durability materials designed for long service life

Cons

  • Requires spring compressor tool for safe installation
  • Installation requires advanced mechanical proficiency

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting installation, ensure you have a professional-grade spring compressor to safely remove the coil spring from the strut assembly. Always work on a level surface and support the vehicle with jack stands. This part is compatible with select Volvo models utilizing OE references 31277826, 31340605, and 31340606; please verify your specific chassis number before purchase. Care should be taken to ensure the rolling bearing is seated correctly to prevent premature failure. Periodic inspection of the rubber bushing for cracks or separation is recommended during every oil change.
