ball joint boots

Anyone know the sizes or a number to order some. I want to flip mine but I would like to at least replace the boots when I do. The ball joints are still good so don't see the point in spending $200 for new ones. But no one around here lists the boots for these, but they have some universal ones.

look on ebay, they have kits w/ ball joints (upper&lower) tie rod ends (inner and outer) w/ pitman arm for under $80, check it out, not a bad rout to go if your already taking the front end apart anyway!

I know, and that come off kinda snippy towards you. I just feel that people should buy American and always looking for the cheapest product is what has gotten us into the economic mess we are in. I also feel that most of these products sold on ebay an whatnot will not last and are probably almost dangerous. China uses inferior materials, and very loose tolerance. They treat their workers poorly and thumb their noses at decent labor and environmental practices. And they use lopsided trade practices to shove their stuff down our throats while making it difficult for American products to compete over there.

Sorry didn't mean to pull up my soap box.

I agree with what you are saying,buy american, but sometimes you do what you have to do! Not trying to sound like an a-hole but if we were all buying american, we wouldnt be driving Mazdas!
