something ive been wishing somone would sell for ages, cos it pi$$es me off paying out for new balljoints/trackrod ends when theres nothing actually wrong with the joint, just the boot is split. expecially as a lot are quite expensive, and often quite a ballache to replace too. previously ive not found anywhere selling just the boots on their own, but clampco now sell this- www.clampcouk.co.uk/item/2012/05/brand-new-product-universal-dust-boot-seal-kit/which should make MOT fails on split boots a lot quicker and easier to sort  just thought id share cos its something i found useful, so a lot of you might too- especially of youre running an obscure motor that is hard to find joints for. |

I reckon since the new MOT rules about splits on boots, this sort of thing will prove very useful to a lot of people. Thanks Dez....  |

Top find Sir. That would have saved me a world of pain (literally!) on a Sunny recently.
Noted.
