Boots...
Scrolling thru my spreadsheet of what I've done to my truck over the years..... boots... replaced in November 2016, close to 150k miles
Question is... what's the lifetime of these boots ???

Too many factors (boost levels, oil in the intake pipes, tightness of boot clamps, engine duty cycle, etc etc) to be able to make general life statements. I'd say if they're not mushy or torn, they're fine.

I inspect mine when performing service on the truck. If they look free of oil and aren’t damaged I move to the next item. Depending on the quality of the boot, it should last a long time.

These boots are RifRaff... like I said, just wondering what the life of boots were. Considering I drive like the GrandPa I am, they are still good !
