Default The dust boot on my shock absorber is cracked. Is that a big deal?

I'm doing a swap tomorrow and the dust cover on my old shock is cracked a bit at the top. Should I just go ahead and transfer it over to the new one? The new ones don't come with dust covers.

Or... could I use the covers from my rears and just change the rears when I find some new ones

go ahead and transfer it to the new one...you wont hurt anything by doing that.their just there to keep excessive amounts of dirt from getting to the wiper seal on the shock
