    I should have saved my old shocks when they installed these ones at the shop. Worst case I'll just have to ride my motorcycle to work for a while :bikewheelie:

    Yes, boots like those work well for the rear shocks.

    Update: I finally got the shocks back from being rebuilt. It took about 2 and a half weeks from when they got them to shipping them back to me, although Memorial Day was in the middle of all that which caused some of the delay. The shocks look good as new, got them installed on the truck Wednesday and it rides like it used to now. Hopefully these seals last longer this time, and I'll definitely be washing them more often in the winter time. Overall I'm happy with the customer service from Falcon (Teraflex).

    Both of my front falcon shocks on my tundra have blown out within 2 years.. Both were covered under warranty but overall I'm not happy with these.
