if the parts are new the reverse nuts are a different color, but if its the original stuff, its probably not going to be easy to tell

I was replacing mine anyway so I could trash the old one... Also, How does the Energy suspensions rubber covers install? Do you put them over the black rubber ones or do you have to remove the ones that are on the tie rods?
Thanks

I ordered Energy tie-rod boots via Autozone, & they ended up not fitting on my OEM tie rod ends with the boot removed.
Never even considered putting them over the existing boots. Maybe would have fit, but I'd worry about the double-thickness between the end and the knuckle fitting OK.

Yeah, they don't seem to fit when put on top either.
