    @DIRT YOTA apparently @Robmonster117 is running OEM steering boot covers for his steering links, might work for you too? Kartek chromoly links right Rob?

    I got a set moog replacement boots on Saturday that I’m gonna try. Should have done it before the alignment, would have been easier to get over clevis portion.

    That is correct, I have the OE boot covering the entire inner clevis and heims. Small end is snug but seals well on the Kartek Tie rods. I'm also working on building a rack saver. the OE boot wont work with the saver installed sadly. Ideally we need to find a universal boot that will clamp/ seal between the clevis body OD and the rack housing.

    Mounted up a few fire putter-outters. Could find a good spot for one in the cab so for now behind the driver seat will do.

    Couple pics from this last Saturday’s Pismo rip. Conditions of sand were pretty bad, very very tracked up from all the golf carts! These were before the P2111 code put me into limp mode. We were stuck way back by sand drags, she made it out under own power but not a fun feeling.

    Put in a new throttle body on her yesterday. Last two photos are of the original 20 yr old TB with 168k on it, assuming it’s original
