- Golf / Jetta 8v models from 1993 to 6.1996
The upper front strut bearings are an integral part of your suspension system, so keeping them fresh is extremely important, especially in a performance driving situation. Worn strut bearings can increase noise and vague feeling at the front end, in addition to poor or changing alignment specs. Any time you upgrade to a new suspension part, or every 30k miles or so, whatever comes first, we recommend new strut bearing / mounts.
Spring Hat Information
When using this kit to convert to the newer bushing/bearing design, you must also change the spring hat to properly fit the smaller bushings to your large top springs. Unfortunately these spring hats are no longer available from VW, so you will need to source your own. Please look at the comparison images for more information.
Priced as a pair.
