Front Strut & Coil Spring Assembly Set Compatible with 07-13 Acura MDX

In this review the TRQ front strut and coil spring assembly set is judged as a practical, cost-conscious replacement for owners of 2007-2013 Acura MDX and 2010-2013 Acura ZDX vehicles that do not have the Adaptive Damping System. The bottom line: this direct fit, fully loaded kit restores ride comfort and handling with minimal effort, making it a solid option for someone who wants an OE replacement that installs quickly and brings back confidence in the front suspension.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed as an OE replacement so no modifications are required for compatible MDX and ZDX models, saving installation time.
• Fully Loaded Struts: Each strut comes pre-assembled with spring and mounts to reduce assembly steps and the chance of installation error.
• Matched Pair: The set includes both driver and passenger assemblies to restore balanced ride quality and improve handling consistency.
• Vehicle Specific Fitment: Clear fitment notes ensure buyers choose the correct kit for non-ADS models, minimizing returns for incompatibility.
• Restored Performance: Calibrated to reduce body sway and vibration so the vehicle feels more stable and comfortable after replacement.

Who It's For

This kit is best for DIYers and independent shops servicing 2007-2013 Acura MDX or 2010-2013 Acura ZDX owners who need a straightforward, direct-fit replacement for worn front struts and springs. It appeals to buyers who value an assembled solution that cuts install time and restores original ride characteristics.

It is not suitable for vehicles equipped with the Adaptive Damping System (ADS) or for buyers who need OEM brand-specific warranty coverage; those owners should seek parts specified for ADS or factory-labeled components.
