Prothane Polyurethane Tie Rod End Boots Pair
For 1983-1987 Toyota Corolla AE86 Trueno & Levin SR5, GTS and All JDM Trims
Overview
Restore and protect your AE86's steering system with a pair of Prothane Polyurethane Tie Rod End Boots. Designed to replace worn or cracked factory dust boots, these high-quality polyurethane boots help keep grease in and harmful contaminants out, extending the service life of your tie rod ends and maintaining smooth steering performance.
Manufactured in the USA from premium Prothane polyurethane, these boots offer significantly greater durability than traditional rubber. They resist oil, grease, road salt, moisture, ozone, UV exposure, and abrasion, making them an excellent choice for daily drivers, restored classics, autocross cars, and track-focused AE86 builds.
Although based on a universal design, these boots are compatible with the factory tie rod ends found on 1983–1987 Toyota Corolla AE86 models. Always verify dimensions before installation.
Features
- Direct replacement tie rod end dust boots for compatible AE86 applications
- Premium Prothane polyurethane construction
- Helps seal grease inside the tie rod end while blocking dirt and moisture
- More durable than factory rubber boots
- Resistant to oil, grease, chemicals, UV exposure, ozone, and cracking
- Ideal for restoration, street, drift, autocross, and track vehicles
- Long-lasting polyurethane construction
- Made in the USA
- Includes one pair (2) tie rod end boots
Benefits
Factory rubber dust boots eventually dry out, crack, and allow moisture and debris to enter the steering joint. Replacing them with durable polyurethane boots helps extend tie rod end life, retain lubrication, reduce contamination, and improve long-term steering reliability.
Whether you're restoring an original AE86 or building a performance-oriented Corolla, these Prothane boots provide dependable protection without sacrificing OEM fit and function.
Installation Notes
- Verify your existing tie rod end dimensions before ordering.
- Inspect tie rod ends for excessive wear before replacing the dust boots.
- Clean all mating surfaces before installation.
- Install carefully to avoid damaging the sealing lip.
- Professional installation is recommended if steering components require service.

Black Polyurethane
A subtle OEM-inspired appearance that blends seamlessly with factory suspension and steering components.

Both colors are manufactured from the same premium polyurethane material and provide identical strength, durability, chemical resistance, and service life.
Why Choose Polyurethane?
Unlike factory rubber that hardens, cracks, and deteriorates with age, polyurethane maintains its shape and flexibility under demanding driving conditions. This results in longer-lasting protection for steering components while reducing maintenance and helping preserve precise steering performance.
