I just put on new adjustable Koni's onto my JZA-70 (same shocks as MA-70 Supra) and the instructions say to put the original rubber shock absorber boots/dust covers onto the new shocks. Problem is on the rear, they have disintegrated. On the front they look intact, but don't look like they will cover the top of the shock.
I tried to get replacements, but the guy who I bought them from rang the Koni dealer in Melbourne who "assured" me that they aren't needed. He said the Koni seals keep the dirt out fine
Is he fobbing me off? Should I try to get some replacements? I saw a guy on the internet cut off some hose covering dirt bike forks and cable tie it on. Anyone with experience (i.e. rally/dirt driving, or anyone who wants to put their two bits in) on this would be appreciated.
