Moog upper ball joints

Hey guys.. got a Moog upper Ball joint for my 71 c10.. believe it is a K6124... my question is the rubber grease boot. It looks huge and doesn't fit snug on the tapered ball joint shaft.

If that the right part number ball joint... and pics of this ball joint installed?

Re: Moog upper ball joints

when installing your balljoints make sure you put the bolts in pointing upward or you'll need to redo it if you put them in pointing down
