034 - Strut Mount Bearing, Volkswagen Golf MK7 GTI/R & Audi 8V S3/TT/TTS (MQB) - 034-601-2002

034Motorsport – Strut Mount Bearing
For VW Golf MK7 GTI/R & Audi 8V S3 / TT / TTS / TTRS / RS3 (MQB)

Refresh your front suspension and eliminate noise or stiffness with the 034Motorsport Strut Mount Bearing, designed as a direct replacement for worn OEM bearings on MQB chassis vehicles. These bearings take a heavy load and commonly wear out — especially on lowered cars or vehicles running coilovers.

If you're installing Density Line Strut Mounts, lowering springs, or coilovers, replacing the strut bearings at the same time is highly recommended for the best ride quality and longevity.

A fresh strut bearing ensures smoother steering response, quieter operation, and an overall more refined suspension feel.

Why Replace Your Strut Bearings?

• Stock bearings wear prematurely, especially on lowered setups

• Prevents creaking, binding, and popping noises

• Restores smooth steering articulation

• Ideal when installing new strut mounts, springs, or coilovers
