Torn gease boot
While working under my '01 TJ, I noticed that the dust boot is torn
where the drag-link attaches to the pitman arm. I figure that I should replace this before too long. I didn't find anything on this in the FSM. Anyone replaced one? How hard is it to pop the drag-link bolt out of the pitman arm? Source of a new boot (dealership)? Anyone been able to get into the Jeeps Unlimited site lately? Art |

Torn gease boot
It shouldn't be too hard to pop the drag-link bolt out. Get the special
tool or hit the side of the pitman arm, where the drag link goes through it, a few times. You can get a new boot by buying a new drag link or drag link end. As for the boots, try looking for "Prothane Tie Rod Boots" in Yahoo! Shopping or your favorite Internet shopping place. I don't know where you can get OEM boots without buying the drag link itself.

Autozone sells polyurathane boots. I bought them for a 95 YJ but they
are probably the same size. Art wrote: > While working under my '01 TJ, I noticed that the dust boot is torn > where the drag-link attaches to the pitman arm.
