Boogered up the ball joint
Whelp, I was installing the lowering springs on my 991 TT and in an attempt to expediently remove the wheel hub from the lower trailing arm, I cut the dust boot quite badly. Does anyone know if the dust boot is a serviceable item or does the entire trailing arm need to be replaced?

Thanks,
Patrick

Suncoast said it is not rebuildable. I ordered a new LTA and will replace it sometime in May. With shipping, it was a $402 mistake.
