Sorry if this is a dumb question, and I'll probably have several more. But I want to make sure I do this correctly. For the front suspension, the manual shows putting on a blue grease boot on the LCA before installing the spindle. I don't see a blue boot in the kit and my LCA looks like some smaller type of grease boot is installed already. See photo. Does the spindle go on directly to what I have shown in the photo or am I missing a grease boot? I tried checking the MK5 manual to see if there was updated info but it looks the same as the MK4 photos.

That one will do...even if it's not blue :)

Thank you Jeff. Just making sure. I don't mind the color. It just looks a little shorter. I'll proceed.
