Is there a dif in the tie rod taper between the 2 years? also where can I source new tie rod end boots? rubber will suffice.

There is no difference in taper but the 78's steering arm has more meat and the hole is bigger because the tie rod shank is beefier.

Energy Suspension has tie rod boots.. they're so lo-buck that there is no reason not to go with polyurethane.
