The functions of shock absorbers and struts fastening elements

Shock absorbers fastening elements are used for attaching components to the body and to the suspension of the vehicle. Fastening to the body is made via the shock absorber mount. It acts as a damper. The mount is a rubber-metal piece with a hole for attaching the rod of the shock absorber, and is fixed to the front fender apron by means of bolts.

Depending on the design, the lower mount attaches the shock absorber to the steering knuckle or the transverse beam of the vehicle; it is a bolting made of steel alloys that are resistant to strong impacts.

Shock absorbers fastening elements should be replaced when new shock absorber struts are installed, since the fastening elements may be covered with a layer of rust as a result of moisture and dirt ingress. To prevent damage to the threads during assembly, it is recommended to check the tightening torque specified in the technical documentation with a torque wrench.
