    Ok so im currently changing.my rear hubs as yhe noise is killing.me from the squeeling and i noticed that where tge ebrake cable hooks up theres remanents of a boot that looked like it kept dirt and stuff out number 10 i was wondering if u have to buy the whole parking brake kit or u can just buy 2 boot replacments? Or is it ok to drive without the boots

    I see them missing all the time, it really isnt a issue if they are gone.

    But in a way they do keep dust and dirt out, though its hard to get much in such a small spot.

    As for finding them, I am not 100% sure, its possible an auto parts store may have them.

    I'd go without it. Dirt/dust can get in all around the drum.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
