Description
The Nissan Figaro uses a Macpherson strut type suspension design which is designed to allow the complete front shock absorber assembly to rotate when steering. This design was employed for ease of manufacture and assembly in comparison to double wishbone vehicle applications and it ensured a great cost saving. The system does have more moving parts and the Front Spring Mounting Seat is a common part to suffer from corrosion over the years.
The seat is designed to hold the front coil spring in place and allows the top mount bearing to be fitted to the top shock absorber mount which means that when a steering input is made, the whole assembly can freely rotate. Over time, the top seat can corrode and break making the retention of the coil spring ineffective. The Genuine Nissan Figaro spring seat is a direct replacement for the original so expect a perfect fit every time.
