just got my aje control arms today. they look great for the most part. good welds and had them powdercoated silver. i'm a little worried about the ball joints though(i ordered them with sn95 balljoints). the rubber boot is just sitting on top of it. how do i get the boot to seal? i've never replaced press fit ball joints before, so i've never seen how the boot goes on. here are some close ups of the ball joint and a few others. does anyone know how these boots are supposed to go?

sorry for the poor quality of the pics, my camera is a POS


EDIT: can't get the pics to come up right so i'm just putting up the links

fixed the red x's again, don't know for how long though.

yeah, i see how they go now. i meant how to get it to seal on the bottom though. i looked at them again and it was pretty obvious. we'll call this one a brain fart :P
