Default Steering rebuild question

All of the boots in my steering system are torn !

Has anyone on here installed energy suspension boots for tie rod ends? Are they hard to install?

Whats the best way to tell if my tie rod ends, trackbar ect are worn out and don't just need new boots?

How about Luke's Links? I did some searching on here and a few guys have them but I haven't heard any reports on how well they hold up after a few years? Are they worth buying? lukeslink.com


Thanks guys

In theory, they look pretty good. Rebuildable. Adjustable. Cheaper than replacing the entire component.

To check your front suspension, jack up the front, and wiggle stuff. If things move where they shouldn't, they are bad.

Lol Thanks HeyYou. I was really wanting to know what people who've installed them on their trucks think of them.

Anybody have Luke's Links?
