2006 Mercury Mountaineer Shocks and Struts

The TRW Shock mount is OE Quality and is manufactured using only the highest quality materials and is designed to reduce road noise and vibration. The shock absorber mounting (suspension strut support bearing) is the upper attachment/pivotal point between the shock absorber and chassis. It supports the vehicle weight, enables a steering of the spring strut and prevents the penetration of vibrations and noises into the chassis.

Product Features:

• OE-Equivalent and direct fit application
• Reduces squeaks, rattles, and vibration noise
• Resistant to oil and other contaminants
