[QUOTE="mudblood, post: 755215, member: 12963"] Ok, so like many of you who installed after market tie rods I fought with cracking boots and finally gave up fooling with them all together. Then of course I worried about how this would affect my Hemis joints and how often I would need to clean and lube them. Lex Motorsports (Sponsor on here) just came out with a really great idea. These boots are some sort of tough marine grade vinyl double layered and marine grade thread (no rotting). I been running these boots about a week now and went off road in a mud bog this weekend. After cleaning under carriage I looked at my hemis and they were clean as a pin and velcro held up great with absolutely no seperation. Now you get one set of clamps to hook up but you may want a small hose clamp set for the lower end if you do a lot of off roading. OH......did I mention the best part.....these boots have velcro, albeit heavy duty (takes two strong hands to pull it appart) that allows you to install these boots [COLOR="black"][COLOR="Red"]WITHOUT[/COLOR][/COLOR] having to remove your tie rods. Also allows you to check the Hemis joints and do any cleaning/ lubrication without removing the hardware. This is a much needed product for aftermarket tie rods and I applaud Lex Motorsports for coming up with the idea. Below you will see how these boots look after install on my Alpha1 1.5 inch tie rods, which took me a grand total of 21 minutes! [/QUOTE]
