Product Details

KYB Strut Boots are built to shield the exposed strut shaft from contaminants that can accelerate wear in the suspension assembly. On Chevrolet Camaro front suspension applications, the boot helps keep abrasive material away from the shaft surface and sealing areas, supporting longer service life for the strut. The KYB SB165 is a direct-fit suspension strut bellows solution for 2016-2019 Chevrolet Camaro front positions.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues It Can Help Address

• Road grit reaching the strut shaft
• Dust and salt buildup around the upper seal
• Premature wear on the bushing area
• Impact damage from suspension bottoming out
• Contamination-related reduction in strut service life

Installation Notes

Install the boot during front strut service or replacement on the Camaro. Inspect the strut shaft, seal area, and bumper condition before assembly, and confirm the boot seats fully over the shaft and surrounding components. Verify front-position fitment for your specific 2016-2019 Chevrolet Camaro before installation.

Quality Assurance

KYB manufactures suspension components with OE-level application focus, and the SB165 follows that approach for front strut protection on the Chevrolet Camaro.
