These are basically the connection points between your shock absorber—or strut—and your vehicle’s chassis. It's a pretty simple part, but it does a few key things. It absorbs vibration, reduces noise coming from the suspension, and allows the strut to pivot smoothly when you turn or go over bumps. Some also include a bearing to make that turning motion even smoother. Think of it as the upper connection. The shock absorber itself handles the actual bouncing, but the mounting is what physically holds it in place, attaching it to the body of the car. It’s part of the whole suspension system working to keep your tires on the ground and give you a comfortable ride. It takes a beating, because all the force from the road travels up through the suspension and right into that mount. If these wear out—and they will eventually, because of all that stress—you'll notice if you have some issues. You might feel more vibration in the steering wheel, or a clunking noise when you go over bumps. Sometimes you’ll get a rattling sound, or a wandering feeling in the steering. It can also cause uneven tire wear. Honestly, it’s a relatively inexpensive part to replace compared to the damage a failed one can cause to other suspension components. You can find them pretty easily, Fixparts Online has a good selection, and getting it done proactively can save you money down the road.
