datman55 16 Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 Hey guys, The rubber boots on my ball joints and tie rod ends are all cracked. I need to either replace the boot or the entire part. Can you buy just the rubber boots? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JimmieJoJo 5 Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 Yeah mate any of the normal auto parts places will be able to help with those rubber bits. Or check out ebay etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kyle_340 527 Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 Can also get direct from Nissan. Taarks.com probably also has Quote Link to post Share on other sites
datman55 16 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 I went to Nissan to get a price on some ball joints, as expected, they will only sell the entire lower control arm with Ball joint already fitted for the bargain price of $545 each! The tie rod ends were nearly as bad - $220 each - bloody ridiculous. I have been to Repco, and they can only supply the entire Ball joint, but not the rubber boot on it's own - didn't bother getting a price. I called Wilkinson Suspension in Bayswater, and they have quoted me $115 to supply & fit new ball joints to the existing arms, as long as I remove the arms and take them in - no problem - that's what I will be doing! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shnoog 1 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Veale sells individual universal ball joint boots. I had to test out a few different ones but i found one that fitted. This was for a c3 corvette lca. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
