Steering rack bellows? Where to order?
I'd like to find OEM style boots/bellows for my 87 manual rack, the current ones were torn.
Does anyone know where to get a set? The two sides are very different diameters so I wasn't sure a generic boot would fit right.
Thanks!

Atkins has them, but they are 45 EACH.
That seems expensive, I assume its OEM but it doesn't specifically say either.
Is that the only option other than cheap universal ones?

I recall getting new sets from RockAuto a few years ago, but I’m assuming you already looked there.

Ok I see them there, thanks for the link. I wasn't familiar with that site.
Are the manual and power steering the same parts?
It doesnt specify, so is it safe to assume so?
