KYB Suspension Strut Bellows P/N:SB178

Shield your front strut from the grit that wears it out with the KYB Suspension Strut Bellows SB178. This strut boot kit installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 2015-2022 Ford Edge, 2016-2018 Lincoln MKX and 2019-2022 Lincoln Nautilus (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details), covering the polished strut shaft to keep dirt, dust, sand, salt and road debris away from the parts that fail first.

  • Durable plastic bellows: wraps the entire front strut shaft to block leak-causing dirt and debris that cause abrasive wear.
  • Poly foam travel-limiting bumper: helps keep the strut from bottoming out and helps limit extreme-movement damage to nearby components.
  • Protects the upper seal and bushing: keeps abrasive contaminants off the shaft, upper seal and bushing, which can help extend the strut's service life.
  • OE-level build: made with design and quality intended to match or exceed the original.

When a torn or missing boot lets contaminants reach the shaft, or the original jounce bumper has crumbled, this kit restores that protection during a strut service. If a worn boot and bumper are behind your noise or premature strut wear, this replaces them.
