[DeTomaso] Steering Rack Boots- Poor Quality?

I’ve thought about what Steve said about making one out of leather.  Seen several other brands done that way, but usually above the console.  Should be no problem getting someone to make it.

Great Point Richard! I don't know how many times I've changed my boot and it seems like they tear on the first drive I make afterwards.

   I make my own with supple leather.  But then, I also make my own seat
   covers, leather bags, coats...

   I have the same problem with shifter boots. The car is always garaged
   and not driven much (enough). Every shifter boot I've installed tears
   at the shifter in what seems like a very short period of time.
   Anyone know a solution for that?

   All,
   I'm now on my second pair of steering rack boots. The first pair failed
   (not having seen any use) and leaked oil all over a few years ago. I
   sent the steering rack to be looked at by Mike Drew, and the
   replacement boots he installed have now failed. It isn't Mike's fault;
   I appreciate his help in looking at the steering rack for me. Where do
   I go to get boots that won't fail in a few years, not even being used?
   Corey
