When going to Autozone do not talk to the idiots they hire. go to the "Help" products aisle and look for the boots. You will nothave a hard time finding them since they are a wearable item for all ball joints out there. True they are not mitsu parts but they work just fine. As an automechanic i have replaced shit load of boots only, especially on antique cars because ball joints are rarely 30.00. Anybody who tells you that the boots cant be found need to remove their head from their A$$.

If you can get the compression arms for 33.00 then go for it. if you have to replace the compression arm because of a ripped boot and get slammed with a price of 230.00 each you will remember i told you that universal boots can be purchased. 33.00 is a good price if your local dealer will sell them for that. Joliet mitsu and dodge here is IL thinks these joints are rare therfore charge full price...70.00

They are easy to replace, you may find the bolt going through the wishbone is frozen in the bushing, be prepared with a sawzaw to cut the bolt and most hardware stores have the metric bolt long enough. if you get in a pickle i have every bolt on the car from a eclipse i cut up.
