Control Arm Ball Joint Rubber Boot Replacement

[PG325]

Whilst swapping a shock over today, I had to remove the control arm to get the strut out, unfortunately the boot has split where it attaches to the bottom of the strut, forks are not the best way to pop the joint!

The MOT is due next month, the problem I have is the control arm is a relatively new Lemforder item, so not wanting to change again and waste another £90.00, is there a way of replacing the rubber boot?

I've seen what appears to be replacement boots, but not sure size or style that I need.

Any ideas?

whenever i've had to replace any rubber boots in that area i've used the poly one's as they are a lot stronger & don't wear out as easy.

i measure the bottom ring & the top one & use circlips to hold them in place.
