So I'm in the process of restoring my 1985 Blazer, and one of the small things I wanted to get done was to simply change the cover on the suspension, because they've all turned from a bright blue to a black. Not exactly sure what they're called, but any help finding the part would be greatly appreciated

What do you mean the cover on the suspension? I know you said you don't know exactally whats its called but pictures would help.

maybe your shock boots? That's the only thing I can think of that could be colored in the suspension?!?!

just buy new boots bro. If you try to paint them or anything then they will just crack. Or just buy new shocks and they will come with new boots.

Also, is there an easy way to figure out which size to order? Or are they just for different places on the suspension?
*Question asked in a double post*
Does anyone have something that could help me figure out what size boots to order? I'd like to replace all of them, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

You may want to call the manufacturer of the shocks you currently have installed to see what they have available.
