KYB Suspension Strut Bellows P/N:SB130
Shield your rear strut shafts from the grit that wears them out with the KYB Suspension Strut Bellows SB177, a jounce bumper and bellows kit that drops in as a direct-fit replacement on the 2013-2019 Ford Escape (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications). This rear strut boot kit wraps the polished shaft to keep dirt, dust, sand, salt and road debris away from the parts they abrade most.
Torn, missing or crumbling boots and bumpers let contaminants attack the shaft and seal, so replacing the bellows and jounce bumper when you service the rear struts helps protect the new hardware from premature wear.
What does this KYB strut bellows kit do?
It covers the rear strut shaft in a durable plastic bellows to keep out dirt, dust, sand, salt and debris, and adds a poly foam bumper that limits strut travel to prevent bottoming out.
What vehicle does the SB177 fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2013-2019 Ford Escape. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the correct application for your vehicle.
Is this for the front or rear struts?
This kit is cataloged for the rear position on the listed Ford Escape applications.
What's included in the kit?
The kit includes the plastic strut bellows (boot) and a poly foam travel-limiting jounce bumper that protects the strut from bottoming out.
Why replace the strut boot and bumper?
A torn or missing boot lets grit reach the polished shaft, upper seal and bushing, causing abrasive wear. A fresh bellows and bumper help protect those parts and can extend strut life.
