Abstract
A hydraulic damper for a mount assembly includes a housing and a subassembly. The housing defines a cavity and is integrally formed to include a plurality of retention features. The subassembly is at least partially disposed in the cavity and is secured relative to the housing by the plurality of retention features. At least one of the plurality of retention features and the subassembly is elastically deformable in a radial direction from an initial diameter to an elastically deformed diameter such that the subassembly is sized to axially pass by the plurality of retention features in the initial diameter for insertion of the subassembly into the housing and the plurality of retention members radially extend over the subassembly in the elastically deformed diameter to secure the subassembly relative to the housing.
