Tie rod rubber dust boots

Post by **MattH** » Fri Oct 25, 13 8:15 pm

Can you just get the rubber boots for the tie rods and Pitman / idler arm? Mine are all cracked or missing but the joints themselves are all good and greasable.

Ive found Massey Ferguson Tractor boots on ebay and wonder if they will do the job?

Ford Transit ones fit. I think I paid 50p each locally....

Only reason I found out was when I phoned Stateside to order some trackrod ends as the rubbers were split and MOT due. They told me they had them in stock in packs of two for about a fiver...
