    Q:
    Does this shock have the blue hard plastic smooth boot or the soft (pliable) convoluted boot? I am looking for the hard boot version to match my originals. I also have this same question about the rear shock 12477893. Again I am looking for the hard smooth blue boot. Posted by Jeff F. / 2005 Light Truck Blazer / Jimmy (4WD)

    They look to be soft boot, but both correct per vin
