Guys,

I need to buy both front steering shaft rubber boots, after markets one, but no one seems to have them, checked with Repco, autobarn and supercheap.

where can I buy them from? any online shop?

im in NSW---near blacktown-castle hill, kellyville :thumbsup:

NOTE - NIssan doesn't have any stock currently in australia, its $49.95 + GST each..too expensive anyway...

Cheers

well when you consider the alternative to not getting those replaced and having dirt and grime get in there, $50 is not bad at all. Buy a barina/ excel if you want to be a stingy bastard :yes:.

From memory Repco/ supercheap have a universal fit steering boot.

Yep you can get universal boots

Ya got a universal one from Repco for $11....and comes with 2year 40,000Km warranty heheh :yes:, funny only one repco store told me that they have universal ones....

Cheers Guys...

if universal ones dnt suit you get some off another make of car that are similar. I used magna boots on my old silvia

This is the one I got from Repco Part number RRB000, I saw in another thread (CLICK HERE FOR OTHER LINK (DIY link whcih shows you how to change steering boot :cheers: )which used repco part number RRB003 not sure which one gona fit properly.

I had a closer look at both my one RRB000 and other RRB003 (pic below), when you count the round circles

RRB000 - 11 Turns

RRB003 - 14 Turns

which means my one is bit shorter..............oooh well will change it tomorrow :thumbsup:

Bit of a bump...

I've had a good search on here for info about steering rack boots- the trouble is I'm after REAR ones for my R33. All the threads I've come across are to do with the front ones.

Any hints? Its a fair bit smaller than the front boots are. Will try to post some photos if that helps.

ive got a r33 gts-t series 2 and am changing over the steering boots. My original boots had 48059 marked on them. Not sure if this is correct as they were quite difficult to get off (i had to cut them off in the end) After reading on here i decided to get the universal boot, rrb 000

i have put the 2 boots together. as you can see the end diameter will not fit over the steering rack. i could cut the last few rings off which could work or is there a better option ??

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
