Draglink Boots
I have new kits for my 52 draglink, who has a trick for stretching the rubber boots over the ball.

Tried grease, they are very tight. Also tried to warm them up, still no go.

Were they packaged separately? They could be the wrong ones. They are usually installed at the factory.

I was also concerned I would ruin them since they were so tight but...... a little grease and work them on. They are not real easy but they will go.
