Front Strut Bellow for 2011-2016 Ram 1500 & More - KYB SB142

Shield your strut shaft from the grit that wears it out with the KYB strut bellow (P/N SB142), a front strut bellows that covers the entire strut shaft to block dirt, dust, sand, salt and other road debris. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2009-2010 Dodge Ram 1500 and the 2011-2016 RAM 1500 — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment.

This suspension strut bellow wraps the polished shaft in a durable plastic bellows, keeping the abrasive contaminants that cause wear from reaching the shaft, upper seal and bushing. The kit also includes a poly foam travel-limiting bumper, so it addresses two jobs in one.

• Protective plastic boot: covers the entire strut shaft to help keep leak-causing dirt and debris away from the shaft, upper seal and bushing.
• Poly foam bumper: a travel-limiting bumper designed to keep the strut from bottoming out and to protect other components from extreme-movement damage.
• Front application: designed and built specifically for the front struts of the 2009-2010 Dodge Ram 1500 and 2011-2016 RAM 1500.
• OE-level build: made with design and quality that matches or exceeds OE.

A torn, cracked or missing boot leaves the shaft exposed to contamination; if that is why your original bellows failed, this replaces it and can help extend the life of the strut.
