Default Cusco A-Arm Dust Boots?

Does anybody know where I can get the dust boots that gon over the ball joints on the Cusco negative camber A-Arms? Do I need to replace the entire ball joint? I have a set that have some dry rott on the boot and I would like to replace them. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Vince

I can check with Japan and see if Cusco offers the boot seperately

Awesome, thanks a lot. If they can't get just the boot, can you give me a price on the ball joints?

I am in the same boat. Please PM me for the same item. I was helping a friend over the weekend adjust his coilovers and I noticed one of his boots is cracked as well.

Thanks!!

Thanks. If they don't have just the dust boot, then let me know how much the entire ball joint would be.

looks like its the whole ball joint that gets replaced per Cusco

Hi Adam san,



Yes we have the repair parts for this.

but we don't have the only rubber boot,

It's whole ball joint with the base plate.


please find the attached file for the sample photo.



availability : about 10 days to get once ordered (then add shipping time to US, we can air if needed though we are going to stock a few of these now with our next shipment)



Retail is $125/ea (we discount it though)

Adam
