Axle boot trouble
dutchsuperseven - 16/6/04 at 05:41 PM

I tried to get axle-boots for my half-shafts, but the one's i got were the wrong type. It seems that no aftermarket-supplier fabricates them. The local Ford dealer wasn't able to help me too!!!
The half-shaft i use came off a 1990 Siėrra 1.8 TD stationwagon.
Rubber boot partnr. 83BG4697-AA
Diff ident.tag: 83BG LC 338 4A0C12 0255
Rear diff cover partnr: 83BG 4033-BA
Diff.housing partnr: 83BG 4025-BE
the parts i need are the metal sleeves which hold the tripode-joint together, the rubber boot itself and the seal/o-ring.
Has anyone got a clue about the right part numbers???????
Greetings, Rob

A picture could come in handy to identify the half-shaft.
The outer diameter of the metal sleeve is 73mm. The more common sleeves are 77/78mm.
