LOGIE Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Ok terrible title. Im trying to find out if the rubber boots on all the suspension parts with balljoints can be replaced? Ie can just the boot be replaced. (Circled in pic) the knuckle/balljoint itself is fine but all my rubber covers have a slash in them...can these be replaced?

Big Mark Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 ebay. I changed all mine when I powder coated all my suspension arms Just take the old ones off and measure the diameter of the holes at each end. Then use lock wire around twice to secure the new ones on.

Big Mark Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 To be honest I brought about 4 different sizes as needed them for all the boots on the car. Hence why I suggest measuring exactly what diameter hole you need at each end and just checking out ebay. I would say that if anything it's better that the larger diameter is a couple of mm too small than too big if you can't get exact as makes lock wiring them easier.
