    If you can't find any over there, rockauto.com has a wide variety of cv boots some of which are just like the mechatech boots you hear about occasionally, and some that are just like stock boots. They are all very reasonable. If you can't order them direct to the UK, then let me know and I can forward you some.
    The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on me.

    Are they not the same as a SWB Trooper?

    Just incase you need it confirming I fitted standard Trooper boots of the same year to mine no problem.

    Believe it or not, there really isn't many sizes of CV boots out there. The axle shop that worked on mine highly recommended Dorman but LittleBeast had bad luck with them. MechaTech seem to work fine for most people but you should be able to get some from a local auto parts store. Just measure the diameter of both the outer race & the shaft & when you go to the autoparts store, have them pull the one for a Trooper. If the 2 ends measure close enough, then you'll be fine.
