KYB Suspension Strut Bellows P/N:SB172
Keep road grit away from the polished strut shaft with the KYB strut bellow SB128, a rear jounce bumper and bellows kit that shields the strut and cushions its travel. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2000-2013 Chevrolet Impala, 2005-2009 Buick LaCrosse and 2014-2016 Chevrolet Impala Limited. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
Dirt, dust, sand, salt and other road debris cause abrasive wear on a strut's polished shaft, upper seal and bushing. This KYB boot kit covers the entire strut shaft in a highly durable plastic bellows designed to keep those contaminants out of the strut, which can help extend its life.
Signs this part may need replacing include a torn, cracked or missing boot, a scored strut shaft, or a bumper that has deteriorated or broken apart. Fitting a fresh boot and bumper when installing new struts helps protect the new units.
