Suspension & Damping Parts • Strut Boot

Good to Know

Tailgate gas springs rely on sealed pistons and smooth rods for proper lift support. Exposure to dirt, water, and UV accelerates seal wear and rod corrosion, leading to early strut failure. MEYLE strut boots provide a protective sleeve that fits snugly over the piston rod to extend strut life.

Key Features

Precision Fit: Tailored to common tailgate strut dimensions for a secure, non-slip installation.
Durable Material: UV-resistant thermoplastic rubber that withstands temperature extremes and chemicals.
Easy Installation: Single-piece design with integrated clamp ensures quick replacement without special tools.
Comprehensive Protection: Shields rod and seals from contaminants, preserving smooth operation.

Installation Tips

Open tailgate fully and secure in position.
Slide old boot off the strut rod; clean any debris from the rod.
Push new MEYLE boot over the strut shaft until the flange seats on the cylinder.
Ensure boot expands at rod end and is free of folds.
Test tailgate movement; watch for smooth, unhindered travel.

FAQ

You can enter your Vehicle Registration Number on our homepage or manually select your vehicle details. We will then filter the parts that match your vehicle. Always double-check the Product Properties section to confirm correct fitment.

Yes! We’re constantly expanding our product range and catalog. If you can’t find the part you’re looking for, please contact us. We work with several manufacturers and may be able to source the part for you.

Many product pages include a Fitment Details tab with additional information. If you still have questions, feel free to use our message service — we’re happy to help.

Parts do not come with additional items like fitting kits or gaskets unless it is clearly specified in the Part Details section of the product page.

Brake Discs: Most standard brake discs are priced individually, but for safety reasons, they must be purchased in pairs. When required, we will automatically set the quantity to 2 in your basket.
Brake Pads: These are sold as a set (either front or rear), so one box is enough for two discs.

The Compatibility Table can be found on each product page, usually below the main product description. Look for a tab or heading labeled Compatibility.
