[Chrysler300] 300C lower ball joint boots troubles

["Henry Schleimer" <henry.schleimer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello

 

Does anyone have a source for the boots for lower ball joints?

 

I bought a front end kit from Andy Bernbaum Auto Parts and installed the
parts about a year ago.  The car is still being restored so no miles on it.
I have now found my lower ball joint boots cracked and split through.  These
ball joints must have been either very old stock or very poor quality.  I
have sent an email to Berbaum explaining this over a month ago and have
received no response.  Be warned.

 

I would like to just buy some good quality boots (on-line to Australia) but
it appears they aren't available separately.  If I must buy the whole ball
joint - so be it.

 

I saw on RockAuto site premium Raybestos ball joints, but they say these are
press in type?  http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=1032580
Mine are screw in.  Are press in joints a replacement for screw in?  Would
the boots fit the screw in ball joint? Any experience with these or other
alternatives, please email direct.  

 

Thanks

 

Henry in hot Brisbane Australia
