Default Ball joint dust cover

Okay, I removed the drive axles on my 1998 Nissan Altima, and
installed replacements. I used a greased pickle fork on the tie rod
ends and the control arm lower ball joints to get the old axles out,
and, sure enough, the dust boots are torn and need to be replaced. Is
there a replacement dust boot for the ball joints, or do you have to
replace the joint itself? Thanks for any info. Art.
