Nissan Leaf Front Strut Mounting Kit with Bearing – Left / Right
This front strut mounting kit with ball bearing fits the top of the front suspension strut on the Nissan Leaf. The rubber and metal mount isolates the strut from the body, and the bearing lets the strut turn smoothly as you steer. The left and right kits are different parts.
A worn top mount or bearing usually causes a knock or clunk from the top of the strut over bumps, a creak or graunch when turning the steering, and a vague feel at the front.
Each side is a Febi part from the bilstein group: left is Febi 188796 and right is Febi 188797.
The table below shows the Nissan versions listed in the bilstein group parts finder, with each note word for word. Listed in the parts finder for the Nissan Leaf (ZE0, 2010 – 2018) 80 kW and Leaf (ZE1, 2017 on) 110 kW and 160 kW. Some versions carry a note in the fitment table. The parts finder adds this note: “to the year of construction: 10/2015”. Some versions are listed with a VIN-range note, shown word for word in the table; it is there for fitment information only. Compare the Nissan part number on your existing part with the numbers on this page before ordering.
