Noticed this morning. Is this just a boot, or, something worse. Steering doesn’t feel any different

 

Once the boot fails it leaves the joint open to contaminants like dirt, sand, water.
You should be able to freshen that up with something like this kit. I just grabbed a generic image for an example, you will want to do a search for your specific application.

Stop it!!! That looks WAY too easy. Thanks a bunch. What specific info would I look for

 

If your rig is all original I suspect that you can look it up by year / model.

This link will take you to additional info.

Here is a video.

 

Awesome. Thanks again

 

Rebuilt mine! Boot blew with less than 500 mi,. What garbage! Went to Borgeson!

 

Great, now I’m jinxed

 

I second the change to Borgeson! One thing to remember, if the rubber product smells like a Harbor Freight store, it's Chinese junk and will start to disintegrate the moment it hits air or even faster with sunlight.
