HELP, PARTS NEEDED IN UK!

Can anyone please point me in the right direction where to buy the rubber boots that cover the front end balljoints please?

I've butchered all of mine so will need upper and lower on both sides.
I also snapped off the grease nipple on one side

I'm thinking that you will need to replace the ball joints themselves. I have never heard of the boots coming separately.

Brilliant, they have just what i'm looking for... but argh, not listed for my car!!

Do you think the 65 Buick Riv uses the same as a Delta 88?

You will probably have to take some measurements then contact them and see if they match up, good luck.
