Does anyone know who makes replacement upper ball joint boots that hold in the grease? It seems I popped both of mine on my Alaska trip. Sorry Youkon roads!!!! Where can I fine them? Is there any more to do than jack it up and unbolt the top ball joint remove the old cover, clean and replace with new cover, and reattach. Has anyone done this on a 2500 HD.

Usually, once the boots are gone, so are the joints. I know of some who have replaced the boots, only to find bad joints shortly after. My boots look new, but the joints are shot. I'll be replacing them in a few weeks. If you still want to try the boots then, and haven't done it yet, I'll send them to you. I don't know of a source for only the boots. All the replacements I've seen are homemade. Motorcycle/bicycle tubes, etc. and they looked as good as any.
