Front Shock Boot Replacement I'm in the middle of my front shock replacement, and on one of them I cut the boot like an idiot to get at the shaft so I could cut it... later realizing I should have slipped the blade in between the upper mount and the top of the boot to cut the non-hardened threaded part... and I'd still have my boot intact.
Anyways I want an OEM boot but the p/n on the boot (22114311) comes up as discontinued. I got a Driveworks boot from Advance but this only has the boot and the bumper, it doesn't have the thick metal part in it like the OEM one, which I believe is needed to properly bolt the upper mount to.
What can I replace this with? It seems like that big metal washer is important.

What replacement shocks did you get? If you're replacing them, the new shocks should come with the boot. Where are you located? I still have some OEM front shocks at the house that MAY have the boot. Pay for shipping (couple bucks I bet, I'll get a price) and I'll send it to you.
