'67 Toro CV replacement boots

I've searched here and a number of web sites and I'm getting conflicting information on these. My passenger side boot is split and rather than replace the original axle, I'd like to just repair what is there for now. I see Dorman and Mevotech sell replacement boots. Mevotech looks NOTHING like the originals. Dorman has conflicting information on every web site they are listed on. 614-003 or 004 seem to be the ones I've narrowed down to, but the sizing shows variations from 3.35" to 3.44" to 3.58" for the large end. Has anyone actually used one of these boots as a replacement, and which one did you use?

Outer ones right? I just went through this on my '66. Here is the boot I used, however it doesn't really match the original in appearance. It's only got two folds rather than the multi fold on the original.

Anytime!

I had to get the biggest CV clamps they had at the parts store to fit around the boot. I used the ones that require the banding tool.
