Ball joint Dust boot cover on Spartan chassis.

Just a good trick to save thousands of dollars !!!

I looked everywhere to change my kneecap dust cover on my Damon Escaper 2001 with a Spartan frame but I did not find one. I change the 2 lower ball joint and I pay $ 700 each.

I settled for $ 15 each cv boot 2002 Hyundai Accent. For the lower, the big the cv is perfect. For 2 smaller, the top one, just cut to the required size. Add grease generously, seal with 2 metallic or plastic clamps and finish. You have a package that will last longer than the original !!! :)

  • I use a cut Tennis ball to cover the Hitch ball and added a little amount of grease to keep the Hitch ball from rusting.
