Just to clear this up, those are called Tie Rod Ends. Are you wanting to replace the TRE or just the rubber boot?

No, hold on to those.  They are stock Toyota vintage items.  You may want them, someday!

Do a search on NapaOnline for "boot" then select "Dust & Grease Boot - Steering Component" from the list. There will be around seven sizes listed, select yours and order or go local. Around $5.00 each.  :biggthumpup:

the tierod ends are replaceable from most any parts store as are the tie rod end boots

the drag link ends :headscratch:  i would assume are a Toyota dealer item

if they are kept lubed they rarely wear out

That you will have to contact the dealer about.
