Genuine Subaru Forester SH5 Complete Strut Assembly – Premium Ex-Japan
Is your Forester SH5 sitting too low or making annoying knocking noises over speed bumps? The SH5 generation is famous for its versatility, but a worn suspension can make it feel unstable and noisy. At Taleon Autospares, we provide the Complete Shock Absorber Assembly, offering you a “total fix” for your front or rear suspension.
Why the “Complete” Unit is Best for Your Forester:
-
Fast & Safe Installation: No need to use dangerous spring compressors. These units come pre-assembled from Japan. Your mechanic simply swaps the old unit for the new one, saving you time and labor costs.
-
Fixes Sagging Instantly: Unlike buying just the shock, a complete assembly includes the original Japanese coil spring, which restores your car’s factory ground clearance—essential for Kenyan roads.
-
Eliminates All Noise: By replacing the top mounting and bearing along with the shock, you stop the “clunking” and “squeaking” that usually comes from old, cracked rubber mounts.
-
Genuine Subaru Engineering: These are authentic OEM parts (KYB/Subaru) imported from Japan. They provide the perfect balance of stiffness and comfort that generic aftermarket brands cannot match.
Common Signs of Failure in SH5 Suspension:
-
“Bottoming Out”: The car hits the bump stops when driving over potholes or carrying passengers.
-
Nose Diving: The front of the car dips forward aggressively when you apply the brakes.
-
Uneven Height: One side of the car looks lower than the other.
-
Loose Handling: The car feels “floaty” or sways excessively at highway speeds.

Maintenance Tip: For the safest handling, we always recommend replacing shocks in pairs (Front Left & Right). This ensures your car stays level and prevents “pulling” during emergency braking.
