I'm hoping to go kart now that I,m up and running but I have to take a step back, ball joint boots are completely dry rotted:(. Does any one know part numbers for aftermarket ones, I don't want to install another set of ffr - any help would be appreciated. thx.

What does dry rotted mean in this context? Dry and rusted out?

Give Tony Zullo a call, he will send you some new ones. They are using a new mfg for the dust boots. The new ones are blue in color and seem to be better quality.
If you just want to order them, I believe I have seen this part # around the forum regarding this issue.

Hi Ray, yes dry rotted an old term I've used all too often through the years , the boots dryed out and cracked completely open, this happened w/in two months after installing them I,m glad I hadn't fill them w/ grease yet.
Thanks Evan for the info i'll give tony a call monday morning I cant wait to go cart!

I can"t find the part number that includes both upper and lower. Also, these come in red or black.

Does anyone have numbers on the actual ball joints? I'd like to use MOOG if at all possible. Tie rods too if I can.
