[DML] Ball joint boots, rack and p boots...

["stainlessilusion" <5n-@xxxxxxx>]

Hey guys, I just got finished putting in new upper/lower ball joints, 
tie rod ends, and rack & pinion boots. Roads here are just horrific, 
and are chewing up my suspension and steering parts. Anyway, 
everything's great with it, steers well and doesn't vibrate or 
anything like that-but I'm more concerned with all of the rubber 
boots. The boots on my lower ball joints only lasted a few months 
before cracking and letting dirt in and the boots on my rack & pinion 
are only about 2 years old but they've long been cracked and leaking 
fluid (and what a pain they were to replace and refill let me tell 
you!). Is there anything I can coat these rubber boots with that will 
prevent the cracking from occurring? I do NOT want to do this work all 
over again! ----- Dani B. #5003
