    Ball joint boots, I need em.

    Just doing an inspection on the underside of the car and found the upper ball joint boots would not stay attached to the ball joint. I believe these are Chrysler ball joints but don’t know what year. Does anyone have a line on some good ones that are durable and will stay on the ball joint. G

    I was digging through some spare parts boxes and found some boot from energy suspension, the part number is 5-13102R but they don’t look correct. Is that the right part number or are there different ones?

    These are what I've used. The short ones work on the upper ball joints.

    I've got the same ones as Papa shows, I believe I got the part number from one of Edwardb's build threads.
    I just googled and it looks like the only difference in your part number and the one Papa and I used is color, yours are red and mine are black.
