Dust Boots for Idler & Pitman Arms?

[NorthWestcuda]

I found it.  FDP963 @yearone.  Has anyone used these before?  Are they just like the original ones with metal inserts or do they look like the typical aftermarket cones shapes ones?

Has anyone bought this "front suspension seal set" FDP963 for $26 from Yearone?  I'd like to know if it looks like and fits like the original tie-rod seals?  I sent YO a tech e-mail but haven't heard from them yet.

So as I posted I got one of the pitman arm boots from Jims. I went to install it yesterday and the darn thing is to big. The ring that should be pressed over the top of the joint housing is about a 16th larger diamater that the old one is preventing me from installing it.  I guess I'll have to get a whole arm as I couldn't find one elsewhere.

Where is this boot you speak of?

Ok I know I'm months late on this but I found one of the NAPA packs that I used on NIKKI. I did all on the left, God willing I'll do the right side this year. They were sort of a bulged cone in style. And NAPA had different sizes. They seemed to hold grease well, but I did not over grease. Sorry I'm so late on this.

Better late than never   I wonder if they have the pitman arm boot.  I'll have to check tomorrow.  I hope I dont have to pull it and bring it with me. What a pain in the arse.

They had them on a free standing rack here. Just check your diameter of the stud..

Energy suspension has poly boots available

Is anyone selling dust boots for idler and pitman arms?  I need to replace them on my car and don't want to replace the armes themselves.

I've used Energy Suspension Polyurethane "Chrysler BallJoint Dust Boot Set #5.13102G
The box has two sizes in it so apparently I have two different sets.  One has a number 13024 and is abot 1 & 1/2 inches tall and a 5/8ths hole opposite the cup.  The other #13009 is about 1 & 1/4 inches tall with a 3/4 inch hole opposite the cup.  I think I ordered them from Performance Suspension many years ago.

Hope this helps.

The kit is for original installed tie rods, ball joints, etc... They also fit the NOS Chrysler stuff, if you have it. The factory ball joints have a machined groves so the seal snaps over it.

They won't work on the aftermarket stuff.
