should i use the energy suspension ball joint boots on my car or not. i used 2 of them already on the lower ball joints, but before i do the tie rod ends and upper ball joints just looking for some opinions here. i guess i am just afraid of them leaking. it doesn't seem like they could seal as good as the stock rubber ones with the spring clip to hold it on.

 

I did,(4 years ago) I wouldnt suggest it. I was thinking now that possibly that there just red covers to put over the stock ones now. I removed my stockers all together and replaced them with the red ones and there all messed up now, and leak.

they are just covers. Ryan

 

heh....more than that son. you dont want dust getting in there bc they will wear out 10x as fast.

 

I am saying that the es bushings are just covers for the stock unit. Son.

 

i tried using them just as covers and i couldn't get them to fit well. so i removed the boot and put them on my lower ball joints

 

that was a bad move, unfortunately. i would replace the lower ball joints. those es covers will leak.

 

yeah i have new upper ball joints/control arms and tie rod ends on order. i am going to leave the stock boots on
