Strut assembly

Independent automotive parts sourcing for documented vehicle applications and order requirements. Ridepoint Sourcing is an independent sourcing partner for automotive strut assemblies and shock absorbers — we coordinate supplier inquiries and do not claim factory ownership or dealership authorization.

What must the part match?

Identify the vehicle year, make, model, engine or chassis code, installed corner (front/rear, left/right), compressed and extended length, and whether the spring, top mount and bearing are included. A shared catalog name or similar damper body is not fitment confirmation.

Fitment information to supply

Vehicle and engine

Record model year, make, model, engine or chassis code and trim that sets ride height. Note unresolved strut-versus-shock questions before factories receive the RFQ for this strut assembly program.

Position and interface

Confirm front or rear axle, left or right side, mounting bolt pattern, spring seat diameter and top-mount interface. Appearance alone does not prove MacPherson strut or damper geometry.

Quantity and packing

State pieces by corner, declare whether spring, boot, insulator and bearing travel with a loaded assembly or must be quoted separately for a bare strut unit.

Destination and timing

Provide destination ZIP and requested delivery window; keep freight, taxes and service fees outside unit price until each quotation states inclusions for the damper order.

Evidence to request, not claims to assume

Requirement and confirmation ledger
Decision pointBuyer / supplier question
Part identityAsk for model-specific drawings, catalog references, compressed/extended length, spring code when loaded, and top-mount or bearing part identifiers matched to the stated vehicle corner.
Supply conditionClarify new production versus remanufactured or other disclosed supply condition for the strut or shock absorber. Reman programs need an explicit statement if offered.
Order evidenceAsk for sample scope, damping-curve or force data when claimed, batch identifiers and packing details before releasing production lots for aftermarket suspension programs.
Quote boundariesConfirm validity, freight, taxes, Incoterms, service scope and exclusions so wholesale strut assembly quotes stay comparable on one total-cost basis without invented savings percentages.
Sample versus lotRecord sample approval identifiers and damping-file versions separately from production-lot release. Accepting one sample does not clear later batches without agreed checks and batch traceability.
