Well made. I put these on my 2001 Subaru Impreza. The passenger side was a bit hard to fit over the rack. I heated it with a heat gun to make it slide on easier. I did not use the clamps that came with it, they are worthless. I used hose clamps.

I noticed a split boot on my kids Forester while I was changing the oil. I ordered overnight shipping on this part and it arrived on time and in good shape. The install was not hard, the most difficult part was a toss up between getting the boot on and tightening the large clamp that they supplied. I chose not to remove the tire rod end which is the proper way to do the install but then the alignment would need to be checked. Instead I put a plastic bag over the tie rod, greased the bag and slid the boot over. It was a bit of a struggle but with the help of a flat head screwdriver to help streatch it I manged. I reused the old small end spring clamp instead of the loop wire supplied. Tight quarters made it tricky to get the large clamp on but again it’s doable. To remove the tie rod end I used a tool that is specific for the task, you can borrow one for free at any auto store. The boot quality is very good and the supplied clamps work well, there was no fitment issue whatever. FYI the tie rod castle nut torque is 20 Ft/Lbs.

It’s too small to fit the 1996 Avalon. I got the Moog K100181 instead. I never had a problem with Beck Arnley products though. One box came with metal ties and the other came with zip ties. Made in Taiwan.

I bought this steering rack boot to replace one that was torn on my 2002 Subaru WRX. In terms of installation it was easier and harder simultaneously. It was harder in the aspect that if you just removed the outer tie rod arm a traditional boot would have been much easier to install. It was easier due to the fact that the car does not require an alignment now that it is installed.
The installation may require a bit of luck, in order to get the boot over the adjustment bracket the boot does get stretched quite a bit. The entire time I was performing the installation I felt like I was about to tear the boot. I also found putting a tiny bit of grease on the small side of the boot helped with the installation. Best of luck with your attempt!

Very stretchy good quality boot. Didn’t use the included clamps and elected for more secure hose clamps instead. FSM calls for silicone grease on the boot ends making if eytremely slippery and difficult to pull over the rack housing.
Recommend stretching it out as much as possible (I applied great force and it didn’t tear) then turning the end of the boot inside out about an inch stretching it owe the outside of itself. Nexy push it on the rack housing, and finally, unfold the lip. Then it can pull into position correctly without cutting.
Note: I’ve been wrenching for years, and still cannot divine what that double hoop length of wire is for. Maybe it’s an installation tool of some kind?

The 2 main chain parts stores in our area wanted 4 to 5 times as much for this item. Can’t imagine the quality of their brand is better. I had a hard time getting this on because of the rack design & location; but even though I stretched it way out; it snapped right back. I bought 2 of these for less than half the price of 1 locally, & got 1 of them the next day. Local store didn’t stock it for my car. I for one am really glad Amazon is selling car parts, & even the good brand names. Prices do fluctuate quite a bit here, but you can usually find what you want at a great price. I’ll be back for more.Beck Arnley 103-2695 Steering Rack Boot Kit

This part does not fit a Camry, at all. The large opening is WAY too small. The only way to use this piece on a Camry steering rack is to cut the end, stretch it over the rack and tie it off with zip ties. That’s what I did. If you can’t get one from a dealer you’ll have to use one of these or fabricate some type of a cover to protect the rack and seals. It’s most likely meant to be a universal part but whoever listed it for 92-96 Camry really missed the mark.
