Replacing an upper grommet

An upper grommet sits between the shock and the mount, cushioning vibration and keeping the shock from rubbing metal. When it hardens or splits, noise and vibration can reach the body. Replacing it is a quick job that restores the cushioning.

Check the grommet and shock eye for cracks before installing a new one. Clean the mounting surface, and confirm that the grommet seats fully into the mount so the shock sits square. Inspect the rest of the front shock hardware while the grommet is out, including the bolts and washers.

Worn shock mounts can also affect alignment feel and tire wear, so inspect them when the grommet is replaced.

  • Look for hardened or split rubber
  • Check the shock eye for corrosion
  • Tighten the upper nut to factory torque

Questions & Answers

Will the Crown Automotive 52087768 fit a 2005 Jeep Wrangler LJ?

Yes. The 2004–2006 Jeep Wrangler LJ is covered in Unlimited and Unlimited Rubicon trims, so a 2005 model falls within that range. Confirm your vehicle's year, model and trim before ordering.

Is this a front or rear grommet?

It is a front shock upper grommet. Its position is front, at the upper shock mount, and it is a factory replacement style part.

Does it fit a 2007 Jeep Wrangler JK?

No. The part covers the 1993–1998 Grand Cherokee ZJ, the 2004–2006 Wrangler LJ and the 1997–2006 Wrangler TJ, not the 2007–2018 Wrangler JK. Confirm your vehicle's year, model and trim before ordering.

Do upper grommets wear out on their own?

Yes. Heat, road grime and age cause rubber grommets to harden or crack over time. Inspect them during shock service or when you hear clunking at the front upper mount. Replacing them once they show damage is the usual approach.
