Hi guys, I've been working on an update for the rear tie rod kits. Seems like people were having issues with the rubber boots when tightening them down, I think more just over-torquing. I changed the reducer design, made out of billet aluminum. Basically they will push into the rose joint and protrude out of the boot. So you don't have to worry about pinching the boot, or worry about the reducer. This will give you the added benefit of also replacing the rose joint with any new technology they create or for replacement purposes sourcing one in your area. You can just remove the high angle reducers and put them in the new joint without issue. This will increase the price by a few pounds but not much. I just wanted to make sure to evolve with people's issues. Since these are the only problems I've heard to date. I think it's taken care of. It took longer than I'd liked because most high angle reducers are longer than you have space for on the ball joint stud. It literally took months to get this worked out. Anyway, here are some photos for an example:
Below is the pressed in reducer that I used to use:
