Booking in a strut replacement job should be straightforward but be prepared for other hidden surprises. By the time a car has reached 80,000km, strut fluid will have passed through its internal valves over 75 million times, causing gradual wear and deterioration. This means the struts are no longer providing the correct damping force required to keep car tyres safely in contact with the road – negatively affecting braking and steering performance. In addition, a strut operating in a weakened state will also put more stress on other suspension components, effectively reducing their operational lifespan. Replacing the strut, dust boot and bump stop at the same time will allow you to save on labour time and help to avoid further problems- with the kits coming complete with everything you need in the one box.

Your complete strut solution.

Protection Kits

Safeguard your new KYB Struts’ performance and durability, by installing a KYB Protection Kit during every strut replacement.

A strut bump stop and protection boot are key elements within the suspension assembly, as they prevent dust and moisture from damaging the piston surface and seal, while also protecting the piston rod from corrosion due to road pollution.
