Tie Rod Boots

Some ball joints can be greased using a big needle on the grease gun. They used to use them on car ball joints. Probably could get one from auto parts store, but still a pain.

Here is an update on my search for a replacement boot for the tie rod on my Mahindra 4550
I found a pair of silicone boots that fit perfectly for a cost of $3.90 plus $5.20 shipping out of Bulgaria.
They took about a month to get here, and I've had them on the tractor for a month testing them out. So far so good. They are not as robust as the OEM boots but their working. I also beefed up the bracket on the guard that is in front of the tie rod to further protect the boot. If anyone is interested in where I purchased the boots, PM me for the info.

Can I get the information for that company to order a set of those boots?

Here is a screenshot of the seller on e-bay that I got the boots from. as a side note they fit perfect but they will not handle a lot of abuse. You need to be careful driving through brush or saplings
