Suspension and frame work, cracked LCA, advice welcome

Remember, when part is installed boot is pressed down over socket. In my opinion you are overthinking it. Likely the ones you have will work.
I thought of that but still the rubber ones I got seem kind of large, I will get a set of the Energy PU boots for all 4 tie rods and 4 ball joints and give it a try, they cost here US$ 70.00 for the set. I will drive this car in short trips and will keep an eye for all these issues so I think it will be ok. Cheers.
