Tie rod rubber boot?

[Nadine UK GTS]

I think I remember the tie rod end ball joint rubber boots (genII) are not available? Just ran a search on here but couldn't find much. I've only just put new tie rods on all around, but my front boots have melted I've taken the boots off, but they are beyond any repair...the # on them is 10-62140 also has 109 moulded into the rubber...all UK Dodge/parts places are shut for the weekend now...but, has anyone else been able to get them out there please, perhaps they fit another application?

The outer tie rod end is the same as that on a Dodge Dakota. If you can't find a "Dakota" rubber boot, then there might be a "help" section of a Halfords that has generic boots showing it fits a Dakota? Don't suspect Dakotas are too popular there, though.

Hi Tom, thanks for help there, a Dakota is even rarer over here than Vipers! Parts places can't find or match anything to that boot, and UK Dodge/Chrysler can only get the whole tie rod arm with boot, no separate boot...In USA are you able to purchase the boot separately from either Dodge, or if not any non-dealer supplies? Has anyone? Thanks, burnt-booties, Nadine.

Nadine, if you like I'll find Dakota boots and send you some. Also, this page may help describe what else you could use.
