Default lower ball joint boot source?

I tore the lower ball joint boot on my 99 accord. Anyone know who carries just the boot? NAPA doesn't.

Thanks, Al

I would just go to the dealership. It has to be less than $10.

Theyre prettycheap enough at the dealer. I wouldnt expect the AutoZoned places to have it unless they can undercut the dealer prices.

Question

I am also looking for lower ball joint boots. Tried the local honda dealer and they don't have any or can't get any. Anywhere online have them? Thanks.

You can look up your own parts at mastic Honda. Parts guys at dealerships can be lazy. If you are tearing up boots using a pickle fork, use a better method. You can shock the joints apart hitting the area surround the joint with a hammer. Don’t hit the joint itself.

When you go there look under "knuckle" and you should find what you are looking for...also look up both the 95 and 94 and see if they are the same...if you have spare parts on the 94 it might work for you.
