I had a million thoughts running through my head and completely spaced that I had the Energy Suspension boots for those upper ball joints. Now I have to run back out there and try them out! Haha!
Okay found the trick for spreading the tabs. Push the threaded rod through with [washer - nut - nut - washer] all on the rod within the tabs and just use a wrench to slowly turn the nuts and push the tabs apart, right?
From one of your previous posts it looks like the shorter boot is for the UCA and it doesn't fit over the ball joint lip like the stock ones, it just sits on top of it right? I guess once its all assembled it's plenty of pressure to keep the grease in.
I'm going to order the 9.13101G boots for the rod ends, too. Any other places I'll want these Energy Suspension boots?
