Default Tie Rod Dust Boot for 95 Caravan

I am looking for the tie rod dust boots for the 95 Caravan (3.3l). Dodge does not list a part, only a new tie rod assembly. There are some generic boots, but I do not know the shaft size (1/2", 9/16", 5/8" ???). Does anyone know the tie rod shaft size or have a recommendation for a replacement tie rod dust boot? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

maybe go to any generic auto parts store, have them pull out a new tie rod and then see what boot size is. IDK that's how I'd figure it out.

You actually went to a dodge dealer for a 16 year old van looking for a rubber boot? why not just put some new tie rods on the van... with the boots bad, you got a lot of contamination in the joint which will greatly amplify failure. New tie rods are only like$20
