Overall, the device appears to be well-made, of decent quality, and I expect it to endure for at least two years. The installation process is also rather simple. Remove the old boot and put the new one in. Mark the tierod so you won't lose alignment, but I still advise having a professional align it. I needed to repair both the inner and outer tie rods, so I purchased two boots (bellows). When doing this, be careful you slide the bellow in before assembling the tie rods. I also purchased metal hose clamps; I'm not sure why this comes with zip ties. I trashed the items. The air is now moved from one booth to the other by a tiny metal pipe; because the hole in the bellow was too large, I added a clamp. The booth I removed had no clamps; it was just a tight fit. I therefore rate this moog product with a 4 star rating. due to the two aforementioned factors: the pipe fitting is too large and there are no true clamps.

I purchased both component numbers 103-3070 and 103-2731 to replace a worn-out boot on the steering assembly of my 2004 Nissan Pathfinder LE 3.5 after reading a lot of conflicting reviews regarding length and fit. When I put both parts on, the 103-3070 fit perfectly while the 103-2731 fell approximately 2-3 inches short. Hope this is useful:)

When trying it for the first time, the price is unbeatable. lasted two hours. For the first time, I removed a tie rod using a pitman arm puller (not an easy fit, but still doable). This is for a 2010 Toyota Sienna, passenger side (common problem per YouTube, this vehicle had nothing but troubles, including water pump failure at 39 K, transmission failure at 60 K, and now power steering failure per dealer at 85 K, estimated cost of replacement: 1.2 K quoted, no fluid drop to the garage floor, no need to add power steering fluid yet, c) (damaged it). Slide the new boot on, then ensure that it is secure from the front of the car (beneath). According to You Tube, apply grease on the inner tie rod's joint.It was difficult to tighten the metal tie that came with the order, so I elected to use zip ties on both ends instead. I'll check to see whether it's still there after some time behind the wheel.Use a new cotter pin and replace the tie rod connecting to the steering knuckle. Tighten to 36 ft/lbs (17 mm socket).I am quite satisfied and worn out for a first-time doer (sweated 3 lbs of fluid off). Since the car is jacked up and the maintenance light is on, the motor oil and filter were also changed. Since the upper oil pan gasket needed to be replaced, which would have cost over $4K, the oil pan has been leaking for years. Today, another 11 oz. of Bar's motor oil leak stopper was added. I'll cross my fingers. 3 hours total, including cleanup. and store everything. I'm hoping this would be useful for anyone who is hesitant to check it out. It's feasible.

Years from now, when I see how long they last, I won't know how much I enjoy these.For the time being, I can only confirm that they were easily installed, perfectly fitted, and supplied with lubricant to lubricate the rack and tie rod joints.My 2004 BMW shows no signs of corrosion anywhere, however removing the tie rods was really challenging. It took a $22 Harbor Freight tie rod end separator to get them to split, and when they did, it was with a startling POP!Additionally, fencing pinchers were required to crimp the metal clamps holding these in place. I could have instead gone out and purchased some slender hose clamps.

While changing the oil on my kids' Forester, I noticed a split boot. This component arrived on schedule and in good condition after I booked overnight shipping for it. The installation was simple; the hardest part was either putting the boot on or tightening the big clamp they provided. The correct approach to install the tire would have been to remove the tire rod end, but that would have required checking the alignment. Instead, I oiled a garbage bag and placed it over the tie rod before sliding the boot over. It was a little difficult, but I was able to get it spread out with the use of a flat head screwdriver. Instead of using the supplied loop wire, I repurposed the existing tiny end spring clamp. The huge clamp was difficult to attach because of the little space, but it is still possible. I used a tool designed for the job to remove the tie rod end; you can get one for free at any auto store. There were no fitment issues at all, and the included clamps are of excellent quality. FYI, the 20 Ft/Lb torque for the tie rod castle nut.

Fit well in my 1995 Honda DelSol. Expect some difficulties, especially on the driver's side, getting the inner bellow to stretch over the rack housing. Due to the fact that this kit includes zip ties to tie the ends of the bellow, I took one star off of it. A metal strap on the interior and a spring clamp on the outside hold the factory bellow in place. It just seems strange to use a zip tie in their place. Instead, I bought 1/4" wide worm drive hose clamps for the task. Apart from that, I'm content and would suggest this item.

Despite the fact that it says to wait until it has dried before applying, I would advise working quickly and intelligently. A word of advice: dry fit it first to determine whether you'll have issues. So go ahead and do it. I'm leakless. Wear gloves as well.

Fit my diesel, stick-shift mk4 Jetta as intended. Although supplied clamps are wonderful, they must be installed using particular pliers. Only issue is that the inner side of the boot had a very tight fit on the steering rack despite having several thousand kilometers on it and looking fine. Once on, well sealed, but difficult to install

Without having to take anything out that would affect your alignment, you can stretch this boot over the tie rod end. ***A little cone is included in the package, which you should place over the screw on the tie rod end. However, I also placed an oiled-up gallon-sized plastic bag underneath the cone. You don't have to be particularly careful; just avoid poking it with anything pointed. Oil the inside of the boot before you begin tugging it over the cone. I simply stuck my thumb through and stretched down on it while tugging it from the larger end when it came time for the boot's tiniest end to pull over the tie rod end. It took some work, but it eventually popped over without any harm to the boot or the boot on my tie rod end.For tutorials on changing a rack boot without aligning it, visit YouTube.Pro tip: It took me forever to get the larger end of the boot to stretch over the metal point on the rack where you're supposed to lock it down (well, I'm obviously no pro, but I learnt something). I've read that this might be a problem unique to certain Subarus, but in any case, I discovered that since the boot is so flexible, all you need to do is slightly turn the big end inside out. After that, raise it to its proper position and place the right side of the end over the metal component. You're good to go once you clamp it down. I hope that was helpful.This boot fit my 2002 Subaru Outback well, but I anticipate that it will fit most cars just fine. My larger end needed to be slightly chopped to make it fit well.

I just installed one of these, and it was definitely worth the time, energy, and money.By avoiding the requirement for realignment, replacing the rack and pinion boot with the installation cone cost much less.Watch some YouTube videos to see how simple this task is.
