Not sure if boot is the right word. The rubber cover for the ball joint that connects the control arm to the knuckle. When taking off the knuckle to swap in z32 brakes the boots were damaged. Hoping someone here knows where to get them. The Local nissan dealer doesn't sell them and told me i would have to just buy a whole new control arm which are $180 each. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i know pdm racing has the front ones
but not sure about rears
Not sure what car you have, but search for S13 or S14 rear balljoint replacement. There's a Moog part that you can get to replace it. Might as well do the other side too, they're probably both toast.

You sure the balljoints are in spec? In my experience, once they get around 40-80k miles on them, they are too loose. There are turning and side to side torque specs for the balljoint, and as a rule of thumb, if you're easily moving it by hand, it's out of spec.
