70 valiant sitting since the 70's.

front end has zero wear but rubber is all shot.

jimsautoparts.com has a set that works out to like $17/pc.

(if I was going to spend that much I'd buy all new Chinese parts, scrap the iron, and just use the new boots on my original rods, joints, arms etc.)

Energy Suspension makes polyurethane dust boots. If you know the sizes you need you're set. http://energysuspension.com/products/Ti ... Boots.html

They pretty heavy duty compared to what comes with your regular balljoints,etc...

I like mine, they haven't split yet!

thanks.

Autozone sells that brand and seems to catalog them application-specific.

Never a good idea if you can possibly avoid it.
