What this part changes
The top mount is the shock absorber's upper anchor point: it supports the weight of the front end and allows the strut to pivot when steering. A sharp cracking noise when turning the wheel while stationary is caused by its bearing.
Competition versions replace the rubber with a bearing and a rigid connection: direct feedback, zero deformation, sometimes integrated camber adjustment - and everything absorbed by the shock absorber is transmitted into the body.
What to plan for
- Replace at the same time as the shock absorbers: the strut is already removed.
- On a lowered car, they wear out faster - the shock absorber bottoms out more often.
