Compatibility Overview

The kit is specifically tailored for vehicles that use the Lemforder 3020501 boot size. Commonly supported models include:

For each vehicle, the kit provides two boot sections: one for the steering shaft and another for the pitman arm. The dimensions are calibrated to match OEM tolerances, ensuring a snug fit that eliminates play or gaps.

Installation Procedure

1. Preparation: Remove any existing boot material and clean the steering shaft and pitman arm surfaces with an alcohol wipe to remove grease and debris.
2. Positioning: Slide the new boot section onto the steering shaft, aligning it with the pre‑cut notch. Repeat for the pitman arm.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the boots annually for signs of cracking, bulging, or wear. Replace promptly to avoid fluid leaks.
