HELP - Can't find dust boots!!!!
 
Well, I am in the process of restoring my 72 Super (see avitar). I completely disassembled the front suspension to thoroughly clean and repaint each component. The ball joints are still pretty good and don't need replaced. However, the dust boots have seen better days and were damaged with my ball joint separator. Does ANYONE sell just the dust boots? I can't find them anywhere!!! Thanks for any help.

I got some at the Advance Auto parts near my house.They seemed a little tight but I prefer that over loose.They were in the help section.They also have the ones for the tie rod ends.

Yes on the Energy Suspension parts, they are nice.
But, this is exactly why I always recommend against those pickle-fork things. Boot damage is a minimum result. It might be faster in a situation where you know that you are replacing the 'joints....might.
