🔧 SB125 Strut Boot by KYB Review

Have the rear shock absorbers been replaced on the Mazda 3 Disi iStop ensuring my new shock absorbers are protected by new covers.

No problem perfect fit I bought protective covers and the dust cover covered them, installed great no problem 26 minutes aside not bad

It's sad to see that the two sets I ordered don't look the same. This leads me to suspect that the quality is not up to scratch. But the quality is better than other generics. Once installed, they are practically invisible anyway.

I've read that some people have trouble fitting this fender. If, as can be seen in the photo/video, you press very hard on the groove and turn the fender clockwise, it goes in without any problems.

They offer excellent value for money. You need to twist the small end of the rubber section and insert it into the small hole in the plastic. I recommend a flathead screwdriver with a twist action to insert into the small slot. hope they hold up

**This product really does fit** Just not with the plastic boot that comes with the kit. The foam part - perhaps the more important part - fits the old plastic dust cover much better than the plastic part that comes with this kit. If you're having trouble putting the plastic cover on the second bump or you think it's taking too long, it's not. Reuse your old plastic dust cover and save yourself a lot of trouble.

It works as intended but pressing the rubber boot into the plastic tube was so painful. It's manual if you're not the Hulk. This is not the first bump to go in easily, otherwise it will easily come off. This is the second bump that should go in the pipe. I had to use the minus driver to push and add all my weight. There were no instructions included so a noob like me looked on youtube and figured it out.

Great! The only way this could be improved would be if there was a way to open the dust cover and then snap it shut. Once installed, it is difficult to remove from the fender. PSA: If you are installing them on a 2nd generation Mazda 3 and they are lowered, install them on your shock and make sure your shocks don't stop. My car is lowered on H&R sport springs with Konis and when I did this setup I didn't buy a new kit like this so I had to put my old bumpers back on which had fallen apart and…
