Anyone know where I can buy some decent balljoint boots?

I built up a lifted balljoint beam last year with new balljoints,
and the boots have perished already....

and the beam hasnt even been on a car yet..... 😬

Well if anyone is interested, Repco sell boots that fit the Balljoints and are quite cheap.... Time will tell if the quality is any better than the boots that came with the joints.

TE-2 for the lower Balljoints RRP inc GST $8.89 a pair
TE-3 for the upper Balljoints RRP inc GST $8.69 a pair

Make sure You grease where the shaft comes out...

so the boot will turn and not rip open like mine did...
