Help: Front right axle keeps tearing boot

[finch13]

Finch, I couldn't get at the bump stops (didn't really want to take those off anyway)
so they are left floating on the shock shaft. I did remove the rotten rubber that holds/held the bump stops in place, so there may be a bit more compression travel now before they get to act

The bump stops seem to be harder or rubber coated plastic.

You have to tear down the strut assembly to replace any of those parts. It's been awhile since I've torn my apart, but I know my bump stops are ripped apart and just sitting on top of the strut body.
